I'm in the middle of changing my opinion seal that's been leaking for some time and ran into what may or may not be a snag.
First, the pinion nut and everything around it was completely covered in rtv. I assume the previous owner did this to slow the leak. I removed all of the rtv and when I...
I'm about to do the ats/Taurus brake upgrade and a little unsure of the best way to go about it. Do I just replace each caliper and then bleed after I'm done with all four? Or bleed after each one is swapped out? Is there a better way to bleed them other than the two person method?
I have P0133/p0153 codes that I can't seem to get rid of. From what I read is that it means the o2s are slow to respond. This showed up after I swapped in a 05 aviator long block. Zero changes outside of that.
I triple checked wiring, o2s are ntk brand with maybe 200 miles at most. I'm also...
Last year I found myself in a bind and had to replace my fuel pump with whatever I was able to find. I installed an Airtex E2301M pump assembly. So far it's been flawless. However, now i'm looking to add a vortech and I'm unsure if the pump is enough. According to the specs, it's 70gph which...
Now that 30 years have passed and loads of data from boosted 4v's has been collected along with advancements in tuning, is 450whp still considered the safe limit on a stock bottom end? Also, are 3v rods any different than 4v? it seems the 3v guys say the limit is 500whp.
I even see some...
Now that I replaced my engine and have the car back on the road, I'm looking for either a vortech or procharged setup for a 2001 cobra. Let me know what you have.
01 cobra engine with right at 200k miles. No knocking or ticking. Exhaust port on number 8 cylinder very oily and the cylinder bore itself has a gold tint to it. The rest of the cylinders and ports look normal. Valve seal or guide issue?
Looking to replace a 200k mile clutch cable. I'm pretty sure it's stretched beyond the factory ratchet system or whatever it's called. What's the go to setup? It's a stock car and just a cruiser so I really don't need anything overly complicated.
I need to replace the hose that goes from the heater core to the fitting on the passenger head. I can't seem to find one for a cobra/mach. Everything I see is for a gt. Can someone point me in the right direction?
In the middle of an aviator engine swap and just realized I'll need to transfer the heater pipe to the aviator head. Where do I get an oring for that and also what is the best way to knock out the freeze plug?
I didn't have any hits on headers so it looks like I may have to turn to manifolds. Message me if you have a set in great condition and how much you want for them shipped. Thank you.
Ready to freshen up my high mile cobra and just dropped off a deposit for a 2005 Aviator engine. I already know I need to swap most external parts off my Cobra engine to the aviator and get a flywheel.
Questions
1. swap my cobra intake cams in place of the Aviators? Is there such a thing as...
I'm bouncing around options to freshen up my 01 Cobra. I found a few aviator and marauder engines in the junkyard but I have to be honest, Im hesitant to take a chance on one of those. I see a few remanufactured options for a long block at what looks to be a reasonable price. Anyone ever go...
I've found a decent deal on a low mileage Marauder engine. What all do I need to put it in my 01 Cobra?
I believe I'll need the following:
Swap oil pan for the cobra
Pilot bearing
6 bolt flywheel
swap intake and exhaust manifolds
front cover maybe??
As far as cams go, it sounds like swapping...
I'm in the middle of swapping out my shifter and figured I'd change the fluid at the same time. If I remember correctly, I'm running Vavoline ATF. Cold shifting stinks but once it warms up, it's fine. I did some research and saw everything from Vavoline maxlife to penzoil syncromesh and...
Maybe I'm just paranoid but is the windshield replacement process pretty simple on a new edge? I have a crack right in the center view of the driver but would rather leave the crack then risk any damage to the body. It looks like the a pilliar pieces need to come off which I have no idea how...
I finally decided to go with a vortech on my 01 Cobra. Before pulling the trigger, are there any remote tuners who can tune a supercharged 01? It seems everyone these days won't touch anything older than coyote. I have a SCT handheld.
