[QUOTE="LS WUT, post: 16833385, member: 152454"] I guess I can’t say there is to many things that I wish I knew asides one thing. I’m sure you boys will get a laugh out of this one. However having this car come out when I was 11 it made it easy for me to do research, and all of that fun stuff. By the time I was old enough, and able to afford one I had a plethora of knowledge on mods, quirks, etc. However on that same note, even though I had owned a 96 cobra 2 weeks prior to me driving down the road and seeing my Redfire for sale, I bought it. So I was driving downtown Sarasota. My car was on coil overs and sat Rather low on my new wheels. I ended up smacking my thermostat housing on the bottom side of the car, messed it up. Replaced it, replaced the thermostat, all the hoses because why not right? All was fine and swell when I started it up, temperature gauge, and my AEM gauge on the side started to get real high. Couldn’t for the life of me figure it out. So as luck would have it I did more research and found out that you had to take that little piece off the crossover hose and burp it. I also wish I knew more about the 7 thread heads versus the 9 thread. I blew a spark plug thru the head racing. Learned quick how to hellicoil pack it. [/QUOTE]
