Hey guys, first post in this forum, but long time SVT lurker poster.
Anyhow, my 95 cobra is almost a track only car, and I've been contiplating a lightning for my wife, and to pull the cobra to the track.
I found one today that matches the rio red of my cobra, but it was at a chevy...
Well last year it was blowing out the spark, and this year its not enough fuel system :mj: . 423/438 to the tires at 5200 rpm, and going lean, so I'm replacing the lines and adding an inline pump thats decent (not a t-rex). H.P. 255 in tank 42s stock lines 95 rails couldn't get the job done...
So it fired up no probs, no leaks, no check engine lite etc. Dynoing Mar 20th. Heres a pic of the engine bay, 100 break in miles so far :rockon: . Any guesses on numbers? It put 420 to the tires with the stock block and 10 psi, so with 4-6 more lbs (2.95 from 3.33) and 25 added cu in, and...

Okay its an explorer, but I figured I'd ask you guys anyway before I dive in. Its a 97 5.0 all wheel drive, its got a howling/groaning from the front left. I dont think its break noise, never heard any break noise like this, more like a bearing noise, plus it doesn't go away when I ride the...
