    FS/FT: 01 Mineral Grey Cobra w/ Blown Motor

    I've gone back and forth about selling it for a while, but I think it's time to let it go. It's a mineral grey 01 cobra with roughly 100k on the clock. The motor's tapping/knocking, it currently doesn't have a trans in it, but I can throw in a rebuildable 3650 if you want. It also has some body...

    Timing chain skipping?

    Hey guys, I just dropped my newly rebuilt motor back in this weekend, and fired it up for the first time last night. At first everything sounded fine, but after giving it a little throttle, it developed a slight tick that comes and goes in the passenger side head. I pulled off the valve cover to...

    Pacesetter LT issues?

    Hey guys, I'm wondering if any of you have any experience with pacesetter longtubes. I ordered some, and was surprised, and kind of pissed that they have 6 threaded holes all-in-all on them. Two are on the collectors for the O2 sensors, one is for the EGR tube, and I've got no clue whatsoever...

    Thrust bearing question

    I've got an 01 cobra, and I'm rebuilding my 4.6 and wondering how exactly the thrust bearing gets installed. I've seen a million different people say a million different things, and I just want to make sure everything goes together right.

    Best k-member for 5.4 swap?

    So I've decided I'm definitely going to do a 5.4, but I'm wondering about my k-member options. I know that k-member spacers will lower the engine enough, but I'd love to save a little weight in the front end as well. I've seen a couple different aftermarket k-members online, but I don't know...

    5.4 swap intake options?

    Hey guys, I'm thinking about doing a 5.4 swap, but I'm not sure about intake options. I'd like it to clear the stock hood, and so far I haven't found anything that looks like it would.

    Feeler: 2001 Cobra Low Oil Pressure Project Make Offer Cash/Trade

    Hey guys, I've got a mineral grey '01 Cobra that I can't decide if I want to sell or not. I rebuilt the motor and then recently I've had low oil pressure. As of right now the motor still runs and sounds fine but when I cut the oil filter open I did find small amounts of bearing pieces in it, so...

    My car decided it hates me again... No oil pressure at low rpm?

    I drove 250 miles to the beach, probably another hundred or so while I was there, and on the day I go to leave, I lose oil pressure at a stop light. I pull pull over to check things out, and after some investigation, I realized it only loses oil pressure at idle. As soon as I hit the gas and...

    First time at the track, how are my numbers?

    60' 2.201 ET 13.934 MPH 102.91 Only mods are a cold air intake of some sort, a bassani catted x, bassani catback, and SRA. My second gear synchro is out, so I'm sure banging it into gear didn't help too much. I've seen better times than this stock, so I'm just wondering if it's a good time...

    I've tried everything, still shifting hard

    I've tried different fluids, I picked up an adjustable clutch cable, tried both the stock shifter and my mgw, but the shifts are still pretty difficult and really crunchy. I'm not grinding gears or anything, but the shifts just aren't smooth. Is there something else I could try? Or is that just...

    Head question for N/A guys

    I've decided that this winter i'm going to start my n/a build, and i'm wondering what the best option is for heads. I've seen a couple guys on here using the 03/04 c heads. I've got an 01. Is it worth it to pick up a set of thrm? Or would hand porting my heads be just as good? Thanks.

    Front Driver's side caliper locks up early

    For whatever reason, the front driver's side caliper gets more pressure than the other four, and if I really have to jam on the brakes, locks up prematurely. I'm assuming I have to get a replacement caliper, but before I do, is there anything that would cause this that I might be overlooking...

    Clanging in front suspension, any ideas?

    So now I have a clanging noise somewhere in my front suspension when I go over any sort of bump. I took it in to get it inspected and the mechanic said it was the front struts, so today I put new front struts on and it still clangs. What should I try next?

    Finally got my Cobra back up and running!

    Well guys, after four months of rebuilding my motor, running into stupid problems here and there, and spending a crapload of money, I finally got my baby going again. This is pretty much the happiest I've been in a long time, so I had to share. Oddly though, the day I got it running, my best...

    bleeding the hydroboost?

    I installed a new power steering line from my hydro boost to the power steering pump, and now when I hit the brakes, the power steering pump makes a pretty nasty noise. I tried the method of bleeding it by turning the wheels back and forth and whatnot, and air is definitely bubbling out, but it...

    Noise upon first startup of new engine, any ideas?

    3 months and 2 grand later, my motor is back in. I just started it up, and I heard a loud ticking noise. My friend's dad who's built numerous engines told me that it wouldn't sound too great when I first start it up, but this sounds pretty awful to me. Here's the video, hopefully someone can...

    Where do the two sensors on the back of the heads go?

    I know I probably should have taken note of this, but I'm putting my motor back together and I can't figure out where the sensors on the back of the heads go. If anyone can help me out that would be great.

    Wtb: Tr3650

    Hey guys, my trans is shot and I feel like a rebuild would be pretty expensive, so I figured I'd ask and see if anyone had one laying around that they are trying to get rid of. Thanks.
