I haven't been keeping up with things here lately, but I saw this on the highway today and thought someone might be interested. This was on HWY 69/75 in southern Oklahoma. Michigan manufacturer plates. It was very obvious from a distance that it wasn't a 'normal' 2015 GT. It looks very, very...
...I am looking at purchasing an AJE tubular K-member with spring-perch A-arms: M32SP K-Member, Sping Bucket A-Arms, Spring Perches, 4.6 Mounts $719. Link to Mustang Kits - scroll down to M32SP
Anybody have any experience with this setup? I do not intend to do coil-overs again, and thus...
I'm the original owner. Sold the car in late 04, then bought it back from the guy I sold it to in 2007. Updated the motor, then lost motivation to completely finish the car. Big life change coming up, resulting in my moving from North Texas to Tennessee soon - motivated to sell...
...getting ready to put the intake back on, and am having issues with the coolant tube that goes under the intake. I have three different varieties, and haven't a clue which one is correct. They are all somewhat different. Also, I don't have any of the hoses, and will have to buy what I need...
This unit came out of my 99 Cobra. The rear was originally out of a 99 GT and I had it setup primarily for the street. I sold the car in late 2004, and the new owner installed the following in that housing:
Lightened spool
33-Spline Moser gun-drilled axles
4.56 gears
C-clip eliminators...
...I'm going to get started with the rebirth of my Cobra here in the not-to-distant future, and while most things are decided upon, an intake is not. I'm considering a Sullivan EFI intake, though I'd like to see some numbers on it before I decide for sure. Obviously its going to raise the peak...
When I bought my NGP+ coolant, I also ordered an Evans 180 high-flow thermostat. However, I didn't install it. The reason is though it fits the housing fine, the design of the Evan's unit is essentially a traditional thermostat, vice the extended stock one that comes in the Cobra:
Stock 04...
I installed my LFP Heat Exchanger today. Install was very straightforward, all hardware needed was in the kit (though there wasn't much needed), and the instructions were clear and included pictures.
Prior to the install, I got the car good and warm (ie...heat soaked), and did a ~30 minute...
...I recently made a Heat Exchanger Guard, and after talking with a couple of folks, we wondered what the added air restriction would do to the IC temperatures. I finally got my PDA Autotap setup finished, so I did a little logging of 4 parameters with and without the aluminum mesh covering the...
...I am seriously considering buying the Autotap for Palm system to run more-or-less full time on my 2004 Cobra. The idea is to have several parameters available to me at a glance and/or push of a button, and not put gauges all over the interior (personal preference). Among the more important...
Since I've had my 04 Cobra, the T56 has been rather notchy - more than I would like and would have thought. To see if a fluid change would make any noticeable difference, I've tried 4 different tranny fluids. From this experience, I have developed some perceptions/conclusions based on driving...
When I did my live axle swap about 2 months ago, I also installed an SLP catted X-pipe and catback. The original catback was the Loudmouth II, which for me, was simply too loud. After about a month, I swapped the Loudmouth II bullet mufflers for a set of their "Pro-Flow" mufflers - which I...
Along with a 26 spline input shaft upgrade, I ordered the 5th and 6th gear overdrive units from D&D Performance. The idea was to bring down highway rpm with the 3.90 gear and KB blower (spinning that blower kills mileage). 5th gear is a .75 (vice stock .79) and 6th gear is a super-high .50 (vs...
Short story - there is no comparison (at least for a daily driver), the Centerforce DF is far superior.
I wanted to upgrade the input shaft (26 spline, I'm hard on input shafts) in my KB 04 Cobra, and of course, that meant a new clutch. I ordered a Spec Stage 3, had the input shaft...

Good Morning,
I am preparing to install my KB and BAP. I have a discussion going with someone that suggests I wire the BAP in such a way that it is always "on", and wired before the FPDM, essentially feeding the FPDM with a certain voltage (18) all the time. The computer is then told...
The 2004 NMRA Racing Season ended almost a month ago. As I started reflecting on my year, the things that had happened, my experiences prior to this year, etc, etc, I decided it might be kind of neat to put some thoughts down on paper (errr….computer). I thought that perhaps a few others...
...I'm taking my new 04 to MIR Monday (weather permitting), and being the rpm hound I am, I would like to know at what RPM the computer shuts the fuel off?
Thanks.
....I've been watching this e-bay auction for a couple of days: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2417963294&category=6236
Car has ~5600 miles and looks factory new, but didn't sell for $27,550. If I didn't have my 99, I would have been VERY tempted to jump on...
I'd have to sell my 99 - and likely get nowhere near what it is worth....but man is this tempting.... :)
