    Valve cover reinstall question

    So you did NOT have to do the step whereby you took out the bolts under the dash behind the brake pedal assy and just removed the MC itself and the brake lines to the frame (I know where you're talking about on that)? Edit : did any PS fluid come out when you unbolted it, or will it only leak...

    Valve cover reinstall question

    All the way around the inner rim of the plug grommet or do you mean on the mating surface of it where it sits on the valve cover itself?

    Valve cover reinstall question

    Where does the Ultra Black RTV go exactly when reinstalling the valve covers on the 4.6? I've read where it meets the timing cover, to hold on to the plug seals, to hold on to the gasket itself during reinstall, but thought I'd ask to be sure. Also if anyone has any updated pics or walkthrough...

    96-04 Mustang/Cobra owners with WORKING cruise control, need your help!

    So after going through two sets of brand new switches from Ford that tested out of range for two of the buttons. Per AlldataDIY and Mark on here, I have confirmed that I have the correct ohm ranges, which for the switch is a specific resistance +/- 10%. Here is a vid I made on how to test them...

    What is my FR500 exhaust worth?

    Been thinking of getting a diff exhaust since I've had the same one for 10 years now. I had someone offer $600 a few years ago and was wondering if people still hunt for FR500 stuff? It's got about 50k, no rust or corrosion (SS and So Cal!), but does have denting on one of the mufflers - kind of...

    For Sale 96-01 Cobra timing cover 4.6 DOHC - $100 obo

    Part number is F5LE-6D080-AB as seen in pictures and I got it for my 99 Cobra, or it is my original one, I honestly can't remember. That's why I included the part number so you can make sure it fits before buying it. It is in good shape and just don't need it since I'm not powdercoating the...

    Viable alternative to a GoPro?

    I was looking into getting one but they are just flat out expensive for basically a digi cam in a polycarbonate case with a variety of attachments. Is there any company out there (yet?) that offers something like it with similar resolution, megapixel size, frame rate, etc.?

    Question re: driving w/o current registration in California

    This is of course hypothetical, but what is the punishment for driving without registration? Let's assume in this example the driver has insurance but the tags have expired and he or she is driving. Is it up to the officer to decide between giving a warning, or writing a fix-it ticket, or could...

    Replacing pinion seal w/o dropping IRS carrier?

    My pinion seal on my '99 Cobra is leaking and I've heard that there is a way to replace it w/o removing the carrier by using a solid (non-crush) collar, marking the nut before removal, and tightening with an inch-lb wrench. Obviously there is more to it, but these were the absolute bare bones of...

    Thoughts on recent California DMV vs. Courts re: DUI charges?

    I read a story recently about the DMV suspending people's licenses for a DUI even if there were found not guilty, were acquitted, or had their charges dismissed (they are not the same according to the DMV). While getting more impaired drivers off the road is ALWAYS a good idea, I wanted to see...

    Anyone in or around Fayetteville, NC with a welder and grinder?

    With the tow hitch that I'm working with, two of the attachment tabs (well, they aren't tabs really, more like 1/4" thick steel) need to be removed and new ones welded in place, if not reusing the existing ones. Unfortunately I don't have a welder or grinder, much less the know how to do it...

    Putting a hitch on an 03/04 Cobra - need help please!

    So I posted this in Roadside already and although I got a lot of opinions on how stupid it was to tow with a Cobra, I know that people do it, and in fact someone suggested looking in the 03/04 forum for help. I need to get a Class 1 hitch in order to move back to CA, however I had planned to get...

    Towing with a 99-04 Cobra - who here's done it?

    Well I posted a thread in Roadside (http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?1015117-Trailer-hitch-for-99-04-Cobra-options) about this and realized that it would make sense to post this in a racing forum since those are people who have a trailer hitch to tow a small trailer with...

    Got it installed! Go to page two for more info and pics. Well, I'll probably be moving back across the country soon and this time I need to drive back and tow a small trailer with my stuff. From some of the reading I've done, there is a hitch out there that does work with the Cobra rear end...

    Weird request - can anyone measure their A/C service port caps for me?

    I'd like to get some new ones since mine have disappeared but don't know what size to get, so I was wondering if anyone could measure theirs and maybe let me know? The ones I've found ask for height in inches, as well as diameter in mm - but I don't know if the diameter they are asking is at the...

    A/C compressor clutch failing - replaceable by itself?

    While driving back from work a few days ago I smelled a burning odor and could hear a squealing sound coming from under the hood. Thankfully it wasn't a spun bearing or otherwise super-serious problem, but this is what I found on my A/C unit : Here is a vid of it actually moving ...

    Thinking of getting 03/04 Cobra side skirts? Buy them NOW!
