That seems to be the norm these days unfortunately. I haven't looked yet but what parts have supply chain issues? It is what it is, thanks for the heads up though
I'm thinking I will be fine with a remote tuner. The car has a Innovate wide band in it so I'm assuming if I get a handheld tuner I can give the tuner the data he needs. I've got to do more research on the topic though as it's changed alot since I dealt with it. I will look into that intake...
Thanks for the reply and info. I just checked and it has a fluidyne HE. I think I remember the lower being a Metco? If so I think those are the quick change type? If so I'll go to a 2 pound lower since I'm guessing the TVS doesn't suffer from as much belt slip as the eaton. I'm with you on the...
I gotcha, I'm not sure where the closest E85 pump is but it's not a bad idea to overbuild the fuel system to support it incase I change my mind down the road.
It has welded sub frame connectors, Full Koni springs/shocks 2" drop, rear sway bar appears aftermarket as do the upper/lower control arms.
Do you have any recommendations for a tuner? I'm I'm middle TN. What air intake do you recommend? I noticed my JLT has a hole big enough to stick my peter...
Thanks for the replies everyone. I definitely agree with you all on the gears and lower pulley. The car is useless now with the 4.56s, I can't imagine someone thinking it was a good idea with a roots blown car, I was thinking 3.55s as well. As for the pulley I haven't measured the lower but...
I will try to not make this too long winded but I wanted to get my Terminator brethrens advice. So I bought my 03 a while back from a dealership that knew dick about the mods that were done to her. I have been discovering as I go along what is done as well as what I want to do with it. It's been...
Didn't know they had the 7.5 rear, good to know. I haven't looked at it but the price is cheaper than that so it's worth a look I think. Thanks for reply
Hey guys I don't know a ton of details about the car yet but wanted a ballpark value. It is a 84 Notch 5.0 5 speed. I was told it is clean and has no rust/runs and drives. Don't know milage but let's assume it's high, what's the ballpark value?
I got the gaskets on the way, the shop I'm going to has one of those fender mounted bars that we can support the engine with up top, need to see where to put the chains though. How many Ft pounds do you torque the header bolts to? It's definitely alot of work to fix an exhaust leak but I want to...
Great info! Now that we have that out of the way my question is about the installation. I've done searchs but what I've found is 15 years old. They were recommending using OEM gaskets+ the Remflex ones along with some locking header bolts. Is that what you guys recommend? I'm also planning on...
My 1st Cobra had a Mac catback with O/R X pipe and it had the best sound I've ever heard, at 2600+ rpm it had this demonic howl that was so crisp and clean! I'm sad to hear that catback is no longer sold, are their any alternatives that sound similar?
Thanks for the info guys, I knew you guys would know what they are! It does have a Bassani X pipe so that makes sense, I just had trouble finding any mention of what they were online. Would these be considered mid length headers?
So I bought this Cobra from a dealership and they had little clue of the mods on it. The car has headers and it has an exhaust leak coming from around the passenger header. I'm going to have to bite the bullet and replace the header gaskets. I need to know what brand these headers are so I can...
Thanks for the link and opinions everyone! I found a 6.75" Kenwood Android auto/ Car play. It was around $380 and it said it would fit the Mach 460 system in a 03 mustang. I'm thinking that was about what was in it, don't want to gouge the guy too bad since all he was doing was flushing the...
Hey guys, I just purchased an 03 and before I got to drive it, I took it to a shop to have a few things fixed. Well while the car was setting outside the shop, a thief stole the little touch screen Bluetooth radio out of it, I think it was a Kenwood IIRC. The shop is going to pay for a new one...
I tried a search but all relevant threads were 10+ years old. Just got my 03 and I notice it is running rich. It has basic bolt ons, pulley, headers, full exhaust etc. My question is are there any tuners close to say Huntsville, AL? Am I better off going with a handheld tuner(sct x4) and using...
I like CCWs as well, just don't know if I want to drop the $ on them. On my 1st 03 I had a 10.5" in the back and actually ran 335 street tires. They looked great and I had no issues but from what I gather I should have had atleast a 11" wheel!
Stock wheels don't look bad at all! Did you get the 10.5" width in the back? I'm wanting to get some meats in the rear(atleast 315s) Also 700 for stock wheels with tires is a great deal! Hell the tires almost cost that
Good to know about the seats, I might re upholster them depending on the price but I have greater fish to fry first. The hood from my research is a fiberglass Cobra R, other than being painted poorly, it fits good. First up I want to get some new wheels and sell these! What is the market like...
He sure did! I think the seats are just re-upholstered stock seats but I could be wrong. I think I can live with the seats but the billet has to go, thanks for the info!
Here are pictures of the interior. At first glance I thought they were 10th anniversary seats but they are definitely different. The A/C plate and controls are all billet :( The window controls and even the damn radio antenna are billet! Can I purchase the stock parts from somewhere?
