I was out riding tonight with my 275/60/15 rears and 26” fronts. My headlights are very dim since they’re pointing to the ground. I maxed out the adjustment to move them up. Is there anyway to gain more vertical adjustment or am I just sol and back to running 26” tires all around at night so...
ProDyno was in my town this weekend for a dyno day so I figured I’d bring my car out to see what it would do. Pretty decent numbers for being 2400’ above see level with a little 2.3 whipple on e85. My question is after installing all my full front and rearTeamZ suspension with strange shocks...
Getting ready to set my pinion angle on my sra cobra. I’ve swapped to all TeamZ components. All heim joints except for LCA’s on the axle mounting side of the arm. I’m going to shoot for - 1.5* to -2*. Am I overthinking this or can I measure driveshaft angle with a magnetic angle finder then...
What alignment settings should I set my 03 cobra to? Full TeamZ suspension, Steeda cc plates, coil overs on Stranges, ride height is approximately 26.5” to the top of front fender, 26” tires on 17x4 wheels up front. This is a street strip setup. Cars at the shop and they’re doing it first thing...
Just curious if I did this correctly. I added all team z upper, lowers, stranges, anti roll bar, and drag springs to my sra cobra. I measured from pinch welds in front and rear side to side. Found the center. Ran a lazer line down the center front to rear. Then plumb bobbed off the rear LCA’s...
I just got my car back from tuner after I changed pulleys. Made 744 on e85 vs 660 on previous tune. I took it out for a couple of pulls and it has a hard time going to the next gear. It’s like it hits a block and won’t go. Sometimes it’s 2nd, sometimes 3rd or 4th. No rhyme or reason...
Well crappy day for my 93 GT. Long story short my new MSD 6 AL2 took a crap so I bypassed it and returned to stock. Now it finally started. I thought all was good. I let it warm up and and gave it a couple of revs to 55-6000 just to make sure all was good. Next thing I know I see steam next...
Cobra was making 660’s but just had it tuned for 4# lower/ 2.75 upper on a 2.3 Whipple. Now it’s making 744/714 tq. It ran 7-7.1’s last year at 101-102mph with 1.60 60’ on MT 28x10.50 slicks. Getting team z suspension on next month though to help track times though. How much of a gain do you...
I’m getting ready to give my car a “kill” tune for the drag strip. I currently run a 2.93/ 2# on e85. My question is will a 2.75”/ 4# combo be good to go on e85? Looking to make 700 or a little over. This is on a gen1 2.3 Whipple
I have full return fuel system, supporting mods, Kooks lt’s and...
First off some of my mods. 2.3 Whipple making 17-18#’s, e-85, SRA with 3:73’s, UPR upper lowers, Eibach pro springs. Car made 660’s at Fastlane. ET drags 28x10.50x15 stiff walls, skinny’s up front on weld v- series.
Track is around 2000 ft asl. Temps in 70’s in Virginia.
1st pass
1.75 60’...
03 whiple making 18# on e85, sra, 6 speed, 3:73’s, making 660’s hp.
I’m running MT ET drags 28x10.50’s @ 12 psi. Leaving off 2 step @ 5500. I keep running 1.6x 60’ and 7.1x et at my local 1/8th. My trap speed is alway 100.xx. This car is dead nuts consistent. Tracks about 2100’ above see...
Just curious as to why I’d have sparks coming from the bell housing when I launched at the drag strip on ET slicks. I didn’t notice this until a friend showed me a video of my car launching a few days ago. I think it only did it one time. I left on the 2step at 3500 or 4100 on that pass...
I took my 03 Cobra to the 1/8th last night for the first time and was a little disappointed to be honest. Help point me in the right direction. I ran 7.31 @ 100.09 1.78 60ft 1st pass. followed by a 7.25 @ 99.25 1.74 60ft. Runs were 20 minutes apart. I was expecting to trap a little higher and at...
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this... feel free to move it.
I’m getting ready to take my Whipple cobra to the 1/8th in a couple of weeks. I just got my MT ET Drag 28x10.50 15” stiff walls mounted up on Weld V-series bead locks and skinnies. My car makes 670-680hp on E-85, upgraded...
im getting ready to order Weld v series bead locks for my 03 Cobra. The car has a SRA from a 99-04 GT and the Cobra brakes. My question is what offset for a 15x10 wheel. My choices are either 6” or 7”. Will I have to run spacers, BFH mod, roll fender? I want to run a 28” tire as well. I...
I'm looking to buy some 15" pro stars for my 03 cobra with the IRS. I know I will have to grind a little but my question is what size wheels and slicks can I fit? I'm running H&R race springs w/o isos right now. I may go back to stock springs for better weight transfer though. Any insite...
This is the 3rd frps I have broke in less than 3 months. It seems like every time I get on this car I break one. What is my problem. My car was tuned at pro dyno and I'm starting to think it could be in the tune. I've read a lot about the $20 disc...maybe it's worth a try. I'm just getting...
I recently had an overheating issue and took it a ford dealership who replaced the t-stat with a 180* and drilled it with 4 holes. The car seemed to run normal. I have since installed an autometer temp gauge and put it in the crossover tube, I've noticed it is leaking where I installed the...
I was driving my 03 cobra out and I noticed it felt a little weird to me..like it had a miss or something..felt it a couple of times slightly while accelerating normally. I looked down to check my guages and holy crap...it was laying on HOT!!!! I immediately turned on my heater only to find it...
Just wanted to post up and let anyone who might be thinking of getting a billetflow irs brace.....it's a very quality piece!!!! I installed it in about 2 hours taking my time. The fit was awsome....no tweaking to make it fit!!!! Not to mention it looked great and looked to be built very...
I just wanted to know if there is any difference in steel CC plates or aluminum CC plates other than price and a weight difference? I definately will be getting the 4 bolt design and either MM or Steeda's ....just wanted to make the best decision before spending money. I'm possibly open to other...
I recently put energy suspension rack bushings in my car to cure the popping noise I was getting when going over bumps or turning about 3 weeks ago .....fixed the proplem. Then after that at work on day I was looking at the car and noticed that the front wheel on the driver side sticks out...
I have came to the point I'm ready to start modding my suspension..right now it's stock. I ordered and paid for a set of H&R race springs on ebay and got scammed, now I'm in the process of getting a paypal refund :fm: !!! Anyways...please give me some suggestions so I can do it right the first...
I won some free Torco Accelorator fuel additive for unleaded gas...it says mix it to 5 gal. of 93 octane to make 102 octane. Is this safe to use with my car and any advantages of using it. Right now I make right at 500 rwhp and 530's tq. , the car has been dyno tuned. I just don't want to run it...
