Looks sick! Let me know if you need a hand putting it on.

Thanks, but I don't believe it'll be going on for awhile. I still need to buy the Head Cooling mod / Idler pullies / and a Kenne Bell Boost-a-Pump, then I'll put it all on in a weekend. And since the car doesn't get to see even the slightest of bad weather, that could be awhile now.

Are you going with the ldc cooling mod or the evenflow?

I have the ldc on mine

Don't know, there is also one from svtperformance that a guy mkes that is also VERY high quality and recommended. Since all of them perform equally I'll probably get the one that looks most like it belongs in the engine bay, since I'm not doing the transmission removal one.

That is the downside to the ldc, but it is very well made and does the job. I had my motor out when i installed it and even with the tranny out it would be a bitch.

Most others use the coolant port on the top of the head.

If you want a hand when it comes time to do your mods let me know, i'd be happy to help.

Justin, that thing is goin to be cooooooooooooooool.

I'm SOO excited Brian!!! finally bitin' the bullet! Don't know when I'll get her to you now that the weather is turning, but I'm in no hurry.

Smoke20 - It's going on my cobra as soon as I finish my list of needed parts.

talntid - No need for me for the gt40 pumps, or for you for that matter. Unless you're putting on that TT kit. You silly SOB, you are putting that on aren't you??? MAFia is in my garage, so all I need now are the idler pulleys and a BAP which I am currently high bidder on!!

SOMTA - Stage 5 port from Stiegemeier with the added 2.76 pulley.

And I'll get underside pics up here shortly.

Adrians car never had that pulley or the idler on it, and also does not have a air box, has got to be a B/S pic ,lol.

Wait a second, that car is Dark Shadow Gray, I'm pretty sure Adrians is Mineral Gray.

Why fake a pic?

Flintstones car gets great gas mileage... but I guess that isnt an issue anymore. Gas prices down to waht? $2.50? rediculous. lol

At Safeway it was $1.48 for 87 octane. I had a $0.50 off/gal discount and used it on the 92 octane. $1.08!!! SCORE!!!! If my truck ran, I'd fill it up and make them really pucker. The truck holds four times the fuel of the Mustang.

Amazing. Well, maybe if you didnt have snow on the roads you could get out and cruise, enjoy the low prices. I am not looking forward to the cold when I come home in January, I am acclimated to the temps over here.

so are you planning on caging Cobra next race season?

Greycobra_03
12-26-2008, 06:15 AM
Hell no! This just means that I wont worry about weight reduction, and will be aiming for a 11.5 exactly car. I will start running street tires and seeing what type of outrageous trap times I can get. There aren't any limits on MPH are there?? Stereo is probably going to be one of the next mods... talntid is helping me out :D

x NOODLES x
12-26-2008, 08:42 AM
Yeah, if I remember correctly there ARE restrictions for MPH as well.

Good ol' boys thought of everything I guess.

My driving is a great limiter on speed lol. Anyone know what the MPH limit would be for an 11.49 car? No cage?

11.50 and 134mph is your limit without a cage.

actually you need only a bar, i believe someone else said it. Why not just put in a bar with swing outs? You don't have to have a jungle gym like some of our cars.

The MM one is a 6pt. with door swingouts. However, who really wants a cage in a "toy" type of a car? By that I mean a guy who wants to got to the track 3-5 times a year to have some fun and see what the car will do.

I know I don't. But that's just me.

Greycobra_03
12-27-2008, 07:47 PM
I dont put a single bar in the car for the same reason I dont put a jungle gym in the car. I dont want to knock my head against a bar while driving 400 miles to see my daughter, and I dont want to wear a helmet while driving 400 miles to see my daughter. My car is very different from yours man :P its not a race car that can be street driven. It is a street car that I occasionally take to the track.

The point made above this post is very applicable. The structure of my car is far superior to any car made in the 1960's and 1970's, and even foxbodies :P. I personally think that the modern car catagory should be changed a little, but who am I?

Couldn't agree more, some guy took a 100% stock I think C6 Corvette and only put slicks on it and broke into the 10's. How crappy would it be to buy a sports car and not be able to run it at the track because it is too fast stock and would need a cage to pass tech.

The problem is the guys who cut out all the supports to save weight to put up ridiculous numbers and then put the panels(doors) back on for whatever reason and then get in an accident. They get hurt, sue, whatever, yadda yadda. You get my point. I don't like the rules anymore than you guys but they're there for a reason. I've hit my head no less than 5 times and it hurts. Still don't have any padding up there yet.

Greycobra_03
12-29-2008, 10:36 PM
BJ, from what I remember of your head it has plenty of padding lol.

Yeah, they should have a technical exception for unmodified stock cars, with full interiors. But whatever, now I have an excuse to be slow lol.
