    Im beating this dead horse, again, again, again, again

    Please don't tell me to use the search option. With so many posts and "key words" it really dilutes your search options when searching for a specific question, plus as technology evolves or products are tried out, there is bound to be new/ updated answers. SOOOOOOOOOO I am interested in a cam...

    Clutch Pedal Vibration

    +1 Pivot Ball Mine was out of spec with 160K, it rattled the crap out of the inspection cover and my pedal. Replaced, all gone. On a side note - swapping shitty for shitty, you may have a bent shaft too.

    Good machine shops in Oklahoma?

    +1 for Burt. He has done a 460, 347, and most recently my 4.6 cobra rebuild. He's off I-35 on a service drive, used to be in Yukon and then W. OKC after that.

    Temp Gauge Issue?

    96 Cobra, stock. My temp gauge typically stays around the middle of R-M - even in 100 degree weather (Oklahoma City). This morning I noticed it moving from N-O-R-M - forward and back. This occurred at moving both on city streets and highway, and while idling. The temp this morning was about...

    Electric exhaust diverters

    Is anyone running electric exhaust diverters - regardless of why - if so what brand did you use and do you like it? (I just want to be loud as **** sometimes).

    How to tell?

    Is there any way to tell if I have aftermarket springs on my car without disassembly? Bought the car used, not sure what's was done or what brands were used for any aftermarket stuff. Just wondering if there is a way to tell without any apparent logos or disassembly, reason being I just put...

    Suspension help - non cobra

    I will do the sway bar technique, and replace the bushings at the same time. It did have strut mounting pads and they appeared in good shape, but that's an easy fix.

    Suspension help - non cobra

    This is not for my cobra, it's for my 04 Focus SVT. I have had no help in the other forum so I thought I'd ask here as y'all help out a lot. I have an 04 Focus SVT 3 door, 194,000 miles all original. Purchased it about 2 months ago. It has a rattle in the front right side, sounds like a bad...

    Front End Noise

    I also have a squeaking noise when I turn my wheels at a stand still, not sure if it's related. It all seems to be related to the Ball joints, but I'm just looking for options/ knowledge before I throw money at it.

    Do I Need a New Motor Mount?

    I just replaced all 3, took about an hour and all my vibration is gone, the engine even sounds quieter. All three were ripped and I really couldn't see the damage until they were out. Got all mine through rock auto pretty inexpensive, and the driver front right is a hydraulic mount for the SVT...

    Front End Noise

    04 SVTF, 193,000, all original. I've only had the car a month and this noise was not present after purchase, however it recently began to be noticeable, and is still present after the following maintenance was done, so I doubt it is specifically any of the components I replaced: Eibach pro...

    04 SVT, new owner with questions

    I did pull the counterweight as the nylon square bushing was worn and cracked and nobody, not even the mini dealer (as it shares the mini trans) could give me a part number. On a side note I have a lot of vibration at idle, I'm going to replace the motor mounts, just curious if anyone else had...

    04 SVT, new owner with questions

    I did replace the bushing on the side of the shifter and found the plastic block on the shift linkage on the top back side of the trans, pulled it apart, turned the block 90 degrees, cleaned the track and put it back together. This cured 90% of the side to side slop and 100% of the front to back...
