    Honeycomb rear deck panel on a cobra

    This would be the only appearance mod I've done to this car but I'm thinking it would look pretty cool. What do you think? Has anyone bought the piece from American Muscle and is it a quality piece?

    Tell me if you think this is a dumb idea....

    I've had my cobra for a little while now and I'm bored with it. I've been thinking about another fox coupe, more specifically a mod motor fox. My cobra is mineral grey and I saw a picture of a mineral grey fox and loved it! I would sell my car but don't want to sacrifice it. It's a whipple 2.3...

    Black/silver FR500 17x10.5

    I have 2 FR500s from American Muscle. I Plasti-dipped then the day I got them and only used them for maybe 3 months. There's still tiny bits of Dip in some of the corners. I'm tired of messing with them. $200 plus shipping for the pair. ($296 new)

    2.3 Whipple/automatic, first time at the strip

    I decided to take this car to the strip to get an idea of what it would do. It's a 2.3 whipple, Lentech 4R70W, SRA, M/T 17" drag radials on E85. It ran a 7.38 at 96.5 with a 1.84. I think it's ok for first run ever. I know there's more in the 60ft. and I can raise the shift points from 5K...

    Does anyone have an automatic with a deep pan?

    I was thinking about an aluminum pan for my 4R70W but I don't want to do it if it's going to be dangerously close to the ground.

    Copper wheels on a DSG Cobra.

    What do you think about this look? I want to change the wheels on my car and I've been everywhere from Weld RTS to something like an HRE wheel. There are some new style HRE's that come in copper and bronze colors which I thought might look good against DSG but HRE wheels are way too expensive to...

    Drag radial opinions. 17 vs. 18

    600hp car currently has 295-35-18 BFG KDW's but I need more traction. I'm thinking about stepping down to 17's because my experience is side wall flex helps almost more than width. I could do a 315-35. or should I stick with the 18's and just do a BFG 295 drag radial? or a 305 M/T drag radial...

    Leaking gas tank options

    I recently replaced my fuel pumps with a Division X hat/pumps/return system. When I had the old pump out I noticed the previous owner had filed on the metal lip around the opening, not sure why. I thought a new gasket would make up the difference but after filling it apparently it didn't. I'm...

    Installed fuel system, P0351, wiring problem

    My car has been down for a few weeks now installing a complete return fuel system, switching to E85 and loading a base tune to get it to the dyno. For the last few days I've been chasing a P0351. I kinda suspected an injector since that had to do with something that changed. It turns out I must...

    Gathering parts for a 4R70 swap

    I'm looking for tips for an auto swap. I searched but it seems like some of the info could be updated. The transmission might be coming from Lentech unless anyone has better suggestions. As far as all the other parts some may be used some from Ford etc. Would an automatic Bullitt have all the...
