Now that is a step by step pictorial. Nice job! -J

Time of year, interest rate hikes, dealers not sticking to ADM and used options with owners ready to increase liquidity during unstable economy? But really winter is always the time to buy and dealers are loosening on the ADMs. I still would have to have a serious reflection before giving up a...

Hard to let that one go but nows the time to buy. I know you mentioned CFTP but unless you track it, I prefer the base and bought CFTP wheels. Looking forward to your new ride -J

Looking forward to daily driving this car. HP Tremec and build date 2/22. If you enjoy driving a manual, this is the sweetest factory setup I’ve driven. -J

Exactly correct. It’s basically a 9.5 deck SBF but only comes in a CGI iron block. Centrifugal blower should be a lighter power adder if not going NA. This was a negative for the SOHC 6.2 iron block as well but once you get the rear suspension working at the track the nose weight isn’t as bad as...

@Dadz500 did you get it yet? My build date is 2/22. -J

It’s the power and potential. You’re starting with 662hp and a blower with potential to make 750rwhp with around $1000. Add some 4.10s and drag radials and that Tremec trans and no NA Boss/Mach will hold a candle to the fun. The Boss was great but once you’re used to Tremec that MT82 is awful. -J

Winter hibernation. -J

The Mach is much better than the Boss but not as good as the GT500. I’ve driven all three and turned down my dads BossLS to order a Mach. They’re the best daily car for sure and I should start that in March. -J

Here’s a ‘66 version hiding in a white/blue resorts but a legit ‘66 GT350H. Awaiting a return to glory. -J

Would the rebate and miles apply to your Y? My wife would drive one if price was right. -J

Or just run drag radials and try it first. Good time actually. -J

True. I spoke with the Eaton guys at PRI and saw the 3100 rotor pack. If that becomes a bolt on upgrade then yes it’ll be a hard decision vs Whipple 3.8 bolt on. The x3100 pack flows 30% more than 2650 so the question is what does that translate to on the 5.2 Predator and what case and...

I’m 90% sure just doing a 3.8 Whipple and using the stock blower on my ‘93 Cobra gen2 Coyote swap. Win win. :) I can understand all these mods to keep the stock blower but more value in the Whipple upgrade and selling stock parts. -J

Correct. Thanks for the info @Blkkbgt I’m swapping it into a ‘93 Cobra. -J

My guy got me 4 305/35/20 last week. They were ordered back in Sept Inventory hopefully is back? -J

No but subscribing. I have an IRS sitting on the shop floor. -J

Very nice! -J

Head flow is probably the biggest determination of power production so if the heads need work, that’s the time to port. My built 5.8 was starting with a set of fresh/new heads direct from ford, but next engine refresh they’ll get full port work. -J

Seems like they’ll take all they can get. Same with my orders, if you don’t want it we’ll easily sell it. But if I’m buying a special ordered new ride I would pissed not to have the heated wheel after seeing how nice they are. So it took about 12wks? -J

Sorry not Cobra related but ‘13-14 GT500s also come with this OD combo and I personally liked to cruise in 6th at 80mph with 4.10s. You shouldn’t use 6th to accelerate anyway really so around town I MUCH prefer the 4.10s as the car responds so much better off boost with that gear. Cobras aren’t...

Thanks guys. I usually go subtle with my rides. This combo not so much :) -J

Haha. I plan on pinning the wastegate shut. Whatever it makes it makes. :) But it’s close to 12:1 and in reality I don’t think I’ll have to make that much boost for the current goals. -J

It’s called ford Modular for a reason. And JDM has been one of the most stellar aftermarket companies I’ve worked with so if you’re having difficulties with them look in the mirror. -J
