Looks like something I’ll be getting into next. But first I’m gonna drive it out there and strap this car up one more time, I’m gonna pay him the 275 for the revision dyno time and see how the car does without a bolt bouncing off the knock sensors like pong. If she makes over 500 then this...

I mean like my tuner tunes the car close as he can and then I take it down the road and for example... right now I can tell I need timing up top so I would add some total timing or some in that rpm range that will be happy with the fuel I have access to at the time.

I remember building the radio shack sims for my GT years ago before I got into tuning. Thanks for the reminder. I’ll have to give that a try. Still ridiculous they can’t turn this stuff off. And he’s not charging me for email revisions... I can’t get an email returned. I have to schedule new...

The car made 487 with blown out ring lands on stock internals, 9psi and a single fuel pump two years ago. The newest issue with the car was that it wouldn’t take any timing because there was a stray bolt stuck under the coolant tube with a thick washer on it that kept setting off the knock...

Are there any self tuning programs for the 99-04 on the market without having to buy an entire new standalone race setup? It’s needed for a street car for minor adjustments so I don’t have to keep paying for revisions that don’t work. My little bro has an SRT Jeep with a Vortech that he...

NICE NUMBERS! Been debating on shortening my C-Head intake now that I'm centri charged. How's it feel down below 3500?

5.50 Backspace on an SN95 length axle in a new edge = Perfect. With 275s it's gonna look mean.

Thanks! It's a VIS carbon fiber cowl that was beyond saving so I refinished it. Definitely helps The Vortech cool down.

Beautiful ride. That is the color right there.

Ohhh. SWEET! I assumed it was still IRS because of the exhaust bend. But that's even better to know you got the same one. Should be PERFECT for a 5.5bs and no spacer. I'll post pics up when I get mine. They're on their way. These should look good and do just fine for this season.

So that's with a 5/16 spacer and IRS... I should be right on the money with a 5.5 backspacing then. Still running my factory cobra brakes on the SN axle too. I may have to do a little grinding.

Do you know the exact backspacing and offset of those rear wheels? Looking to buy some deep 15x10s like that but I have a shorter 94-98 solid axle now.

That is a nice score. I just bought a factory twin hat with dual Focus 255s and hose upgrade/pprv delete for 150. I've been wondering the same things, but I've already got a Vortech in the car that is maxing the DC on a single stealth 325 @6100rpm (with the typical random dropout spikes from...

A good choice for head gaskets as well as any replacements for intake/disassembly parts are OEM Ford. They are readily available. The rings will have to be file fit to spec in your particular cylinders. For those I suggest talking with a local machine shop that can fit rings. Total Seal is a...

I have 2 factory 03-04s refinished in black that Im getting rid of. Not sure how much x9s help.

Getting setup for the track...almost ready. Waiting on the six point cage, a little front chassis work and rear wheels/tires.

Heres a pic from last year with the same rear tires and wheel +1'' Spacer setup. This is exactly where I like to have the wheel/tire in relation to the wheel well. 15x10/4.50BS or 15X10/5.50BS

Sorry if this is the wrong section. I know there's about a million threads on rear wheel backspacing, but I couldn't find any that cover new edges with the 1.50" shorter 94-98 rear axle. I recently did this SRA swap in my 01 Cobra and decided to go with this axle because it was already built...

I just saw there was another cylinder that did the exact same thing. Cracked the actual sleeve and all. Looks like to me it's from the flame heat and pressure being the highest right there...

Crank from the last post. And this one was kinda funny. Came out of the beater.

Is anyone else getting that weird nervous feeling looking at this thread? Not as bad as the stuff I'm seeing in here but this came out of cyl #5 of my 01 Cobra. Was bone stock at the time. Bearing is melted into the rod and they are now one. Scored the forged cranks journal beyond any...

My 01 V2 SC Trim made more power with a 3.60 pulley than a 3.33. I'm guessing due to belt slip and/or efficiency. There's a lot more belt wrap with the bigger pulley so I agree with an OD crank.
