So you all may know the problem, sometimes while driving if the enigne drops down to idle, like when coasting, the engine will shut off. I must turn the ignition back on and restart it. This has happend in my Cobra and 3 GTs I've driven. Normally it has only happend once every couple of months...

First off, sorry if this has been covered but the search function had a memory overload with the words "car cover". :shrug: Anyway, I am looking for a good high quality car cover. I have to keep my Cobra outside and I am tired of the lawn guys blowing crap all over the Cobra every week...

I have my upper intake manifold off and I am doing some porting and I realized that most of the "crap" ( black oily nastiness) in the manifold is coming from the EGR. I know they sell EGR block off plates and I can make on for free in 5 min, but have any of you done this? Any benifits? Any...

I'm going to be inheriting my families 1964.5 289 mustang coupe in a few weeks and I would like to see some pics of stock and modified 64-66 coupes so I can get some ideas. Also if you can list the mods in the pics that would be great, I'm mainly trying to find a good wheel/tire combo size to...

Does anyone of a good online forum for vintage mustangs? I'm going to be getting a 64 1/2 in a few weeks and would like to find a good forum. Thanks

I just got my new Spec stage 2 clutch w/ AL flywheel install on my 2001 cobra w/ the stock 3650. My question is: If I get a T56 (mostly likely Cobra R spec) will it be compatible with my clutch/flywheel combo? Thanks

I just got my Loudmouth II mufflers on the Cobra and they sound great. I now have the SLP O/R X and SLP LM2 cat-back. It almost sounds Ferrarish now instead of that awesome but absurd NASCAR sound that I had with the O/R X and the LM1. I would highly recommend the LM2 if you are running an O/R...

Does any one have a sound clip of a 2V or 4V 4.6 with an Off-road X pipe and the stock catback? Thanks

Does anyone make a side exit exhaust kit that will work with the IRS and subframe connectors? I have found a few, Steeda and Borla come to mind, but they will not work with the IRS nor subframe connectors. Thanks

I just installed my new headlights I got for Christmas, but the are way outta wack. Where is the adjustment to aim these headlights. Thanks.

Well, I just finished installing my new SLP Off-road X pipe on to the Cobra at 12:30am and man is it loud. I mean this thing is really really loud. I did a quick test drive around town but I couldn’t get myself to go over 2000 rpm, because it was so damn loud. Maybe it’s just because it is late...

I have seen a lot of you guys run w/o the front splitter on your Cobra Rs. As a 01 Cobra owner looking to do the Cobra R body parts, why do you take the splitter off? I have heard the splitter is bad at high speed tracks, it flexes/wobbles or something, but how is the clearance on the street...

I'm torn between these two rims. I have the Cobra Rs on it now but I really miss the 315 Bullitts that were on my 03 GT. I now have the option to put either set on my car but I have to choose. What do you think? BTW the second photo is Photoshopped. 18x9.5 Cobra Rs on 265/40/18s Front and...

I am looking to upgrade the brakes on my 01 Cobra. I am trying to compare the 13" (330mm) 1 piece rotor Kit that the Cobra R has stock and the 14" (355mm) 2-Piece rotor kit. The 13" kit is $1,149, and the 14" Kit is $3,159! Are the 14" rotors worth the extra $2K? My car is a street/open track...
