I had big plans for mine but my wife has been off of work for medical reasons so all it is getting is a new set of rear tires and maybe if I stop procrastinating I'll install my catch can that I bought last year.
What are you guys doing for spring mods?
- Thread starter Gallows
- Start date
going to paint my calipers and the rusty looking part on my rotors when i feel like it...and get a retune with the smaller pulley and meth...then try and get rid of some vibrations ( i think motor mounts) and some squeeks here and there...
im going to end up buying forged internals for my motor....not sure but i wanna do an eaton swap and sell my vortech setup. Oh and i have drilled and slotted rotors i need to install along with painting my calipers.
A Eaton swap would be a lot of fun and they are pretty reasonable priced these days. I'm thinking of taking my Vortech off and selling it and then do a n/a build.
had my heart set on rims and tires but the fiance says the wedding this summer is more important..
Some suspension mods, struts,shocks,painting calipers, new brake pads, tint, paint side mirrors, summit racing seats, and if funds allow it upper and lower control arms. I need to take advantage that the wife is allowing me to.
kirkey seats, 8 point cage, finish my magnafuel pump and sumped tank set up, manual steering and brakes, strange front drag brake set up. from there hopefully start looking into a dart 331 or 363 short block build to replace my stock block 331.
Install the big mess of parts I have in my storage:
-Shortrunner intake by na svt :beer:
-IRS differential bushings
-4.10 geared differential
-Speedcal
-New a/c condenser
-New radiator (again)
-Drilled/slotted rear rotors
-In dash screen
-Dyno tune @ Maximum Velocity
Hopefully all this is done by the end of april:shrug:

I'm working with what I have right now. Lowering the car 1" to see it hooks better. New tires are also on the list.
sending C heads for port and polish, doing C head swap, eaton swap without the eaton but with a KB 2.2, powdercoating all of the eaton stuff wrinkle black, powdercoating valve covers wrinkle red, canton battery intercooler tank, killer chiller, relocate battery to the trunk, installing complete 03 interior, 03 fuel tank, fore triple walbro hat, installed FR500's, and a tune... i think thats it
I was very exited when I drove car out of carage last week for the first time after winter but dissapointed right away... Some kind of hurling bearing noise comming from somewhere of powertrain. I'm afraid of that it is rear axle bearings.
Its a blessing in disguise... now you have a perfect excuse to upgrade it.
Thank god it happened now. I'm going to drive my Cobra thru Europe and german autobahns and hit legendary Nurburing in comming summer.
just curious whats the story on the radiator again. is there a brand I should stay clear of?

I just got done installing a handful of autometer gauges and got my eyes on a set of slicks next!
nothing, that's what winter is for.
j/k probably some 4.10's here real soon.

Adding a Vortech after cooler and an 8 rib set up to my already supercharged 98 cobra. Having valve covers and other parts powder coated. Going for the show and go look. Had the coolant reservoir sanded and painted gloss black and it looks amazing. Can't wait to get it all installed, have an appointment on April 28th.
just did all mine new hids i bought from the parts for sale section, h and r lowering springs, new front tires and an alignment. Oh ya and a new battery as mine drained and is dead after the storage. Hopefully will be good to go
