    Teksid block

    The 1999 Cobra did come with a Teksid aluminium block. Forged crank but the other internals were cast. I purchased my 99 already broke, although spun bearing and scored crank as opposed to top end issue that some experience. It has all forged internals in it now 20 over stroked to 5.0. I will...

    1999 Cobra Rebuild Suggestions

    Thank you for those that weighed in and shared thoughts. I apologize profusely for sunmarining. Life happened and fast forward, I managed to take the input and have a running Cobra. Current, Plan A went out the window once we had it apart and confirmed the spun bearing, but the crank was...

    1999 Cobra Rebuild Suggestions

    99 With a "Knock" "Tap"

    Tried the stethoscope but seemed to make the same noise no matter which side, angle or point i tried. It was worth a try and a lot less than the camera route.

    99 With a "Knock" "Tap"

    Well after a couple of trips back-and-forth to the cobra... I wasn't having much luck shutting down cylinders or using a stethoscope so I started pulling a coil boots and found a small amount of oil at the top of the boot on the number 8 cylinder. No more than a 1/2 a teaspoon but best I can...

    99 With a "Knock" "Tap"

    I will give this a try tomorrow...The battery was too low to crank it over tonight. It's stored at an airport, so it would be easy to pull the filter and pull the paper to see what's in it. I can sure check it but I don't recall noticing anything at all when clutching and moving the vehicle...

    99 With a "Knock" "Tap"

    I haven't ran it up to temp. Just long enough to trailer and un-trailer. Didn't want to stay running at first from a cold start.

    99 With a "Knock" "Tap"

    I've read quite few posts that let me know I'm not alone on a deal I stepped into, so here's the short version: I picked up a 1999 Cobra Convertible 5-SPD (Black/Black) with 75K on it and new tires for 2500. Bought it off a friend that had it since new to get it out of his barn after his son...
