    Parting out an SVT w/ a blown engine.

    The wife and I have a '98.5 Contour that we're looking to part out before we have someone come haul it off. It's black w/ a tan interior. Key points: The engine is out of the car, has to be torn apart yet but I suspect the heads, intake, and cams are all usable. More on that shortly...

    06 GT back from some paint work.

    Please excuse the crappy pictures, we didin't get it back from the body shop in time to get any good sunlight! Aside from the obvious stripes, we added a GT500 rear bumper, Legend hood, Cervinis side scoops, and had the rocker panels painted black. All of the stripe work is paint...

    Help finding a car stolen from Dover, DE.

    My friend's black 2001 Cobra convertible was stolen last night from an appartment complex in Dover, DE. It had a black top and a tan interior, Oklahoma tags, and an aluminum gas cap with the "SVT" logo etched into it, otherwise it will look like any other lowered Cobra. If anyone sees this car...

    Ran a stock '01 Cobra in my wife's new 5-speed '06 GT

    Both cars were convertibles, both were stock. I took the Cobra off the line by about a car length, chalk that up to the other guy not knowing how to launch an IRS. By the top of 3rd the Cobra only managed to regain less than half the distance it lost off the line. I know this scenario had...

    Stroker engine done.

    Just got done breaking in my new 304ci stroker engine. It's a lightweight ModMax crank, ModMax rods, and 10.5:1 CP pistons. Also threw in an aluminum Canton 7qt roadrace oil pan and windage tray for kicks. Don't have any dyno numbers but the Butt-O-Meter says it's much punchier now...

    We have a near complete interior from a '98 SVT that's going in the trash here shortly. If anyone wants anything, speak up now. The only stipulations are that the seats must go as a set (front & rear together), and the buyers will pay for shipping on any parts. I do not have the time to list...

    Doing 3.0 hybrid in the coming month, need help with LIM's

    The wife's car died on us last weekend, so we're picking up a used '01 Taurus engine tomorrow to do the rebuild. We're going to stick with the SVT intake and cams, but everything else is coming from the Taurus. We want to see about upgrading to the 34/35mm LIM, was that part used on any car...

    Cleaning lower intake butterflies this weekend, need advice

    Is there anything else we should take care of while the intake manifolds are out? We've already ordered all 4 intake gaskets and we plan on taking off the valve covers to take a look at the valvetrain and replace the worn out cover gaskets and spark plug seals. Is there anything we should be...

    Took the plunge, ordered a full exhaust!

    Got a set of coated MSDS headers and a stainless Trubendz catted Y-pipe with test pipe section and stainless resonated catback with Magnaflow muffler and 3" rolled straitcut tips. Can't wait :D

    Did a little weight reduction on the Contour

    Picked up a complete tan interior out of a totaled 2000 SVT Contour with 28k miles. Had to go pick it up in our car, so we gutted it and installed most of the tan when we arrived. Put the rest in the trunk. Up next, a new coat of paint and some clear headlights and fogs to match :-D

    Getting block bored .020 over, how necessary is a torque plate?

    Subject says it all, the motor's getting rebuilt and I'm getting mixed reviews about needing Torque Plates to get the cylinders bored over. No one has them, one shop offered to get them but it was going to cost $420 out of my pocket. Who do I listen to?

    Lowering springs raising a car instead of dropping it?

    Tonight I helped a friend install a set of Eibach ProKit springs in his '01 Cobra 'vert along with a set of '03 Cobra shocks and some IRS subframe bushings. When we dropped the car it actually sat higher than it did when we started??? There's now a 5" gap between the rear fender and the tire...

    Done with my latest round of suspension mods, reviews inside.

    I just got my car back on the ground this afternoon. I installed all of the Maximum Motorsports IRS bushings, including the aluminum diff bushings, bumpsteer kit, and adjustable swaybar endlinks. Up front I added tubular control arms (Zero-offest) with Delrin bushings, a bolt-through-spindle...

    Ordered some new suspension goodies!

    MM got a little richer off me this week :-D Just ordered the IRS rear grip package (delrin control arm bushings, bump steer kit, endlinks, etc...), front bumpsteer kit, tubular front control arms with delrin bushings, and the new Flaming River Sportsman power steering rack. I'm stoked.

    Front end weight savings!

    Just replaced my front roll resister and installed the energy suspension bushings that piggyback on the rubber insert and I noticed the bushing we installed was notably lighter than the one we took out of the car. Low and behold, the factory unit used an iron shell while the one that took it's...

    Anyone selling their stock Focus wheels?

    I'm looking for a set of SVT Focus wheels. I don't want the 6-spoke 2004 rims or the multi-spoke Euro wheels, just the plain old 5-spokes. Not interested at all in used tires, just the rims. I live in Dover DE, looking to purchase locally. Willing to travel a reasonable distance to meet half...

    Replacing a few bushings, need some direction.

    Our Contour is in desperate need of an engine mount, so we went ahead and got ourselves a poly motor mount. While we were at it we grabbed the swaybar bushings. The swaybar bushings I'm fairly confidant I can handle myself, the engine mount has me a little concerned. We have a lift at our...
