EVIL1

Of coarse I painted them with POR15 to prevent rust.

I installed the sub frame connectors and welded up the torque boxes when I did the 8.8 conversion. Thought some of you would like to see.

Thanks. Yeah Thompson isn't the greatest, I had to baby it just about all of 1st gear.

Hell I think it could go way quicker with some practice. I've only raced it about 6 times in the last 2 years.

Spray off the line, blower on the top end, and a solid rear seem to make them nice track cars. I was honestly expecting you to say 650-700.

I've never used the spray. I only put it on because I had it and figured why not.

I'm pretty close to maxed out on my FPDC (80%) as is.

I would take this opportunity and upgrade to 31 spline. I don't have any experience with the Detroit Locker diffs. I use a stock 03-04 cobra 31 spline diff in my cobra and it has been perfect. If you race a lot or with slicks I wouldn't trust it obviously.

Now my coupe is a different story. It's not a daily driver so I went with 33 spline Mosers with the Moser light weight Spool and C-Clip eliminators. I got everything for less than $600 shipped from ArtsParts. I still drive it on the street and it works fine... low speed turns cause the tires to chirp but that's it.

Better late than never

Love the Sonic Blue.

shit, maybe i already added it to the thread, i'll check

Yep, you have it. Also have my LDC cooling mod install.

Out of curiosity how much power/torque does it take to make this things run 10's?

Best numbers for mine was 616 but I've seen em run 10's with much less. Mine even has the spare and jack still in the trunk, the solid swap saves some weight but that weight is from the rear and negates the saving somewhat.

love the wanna be coat hanger drive shaft loop?lol

Are you truly that fucking stupid? You can't see the DS isn't even bolted up? :gtfo:

nice write-up. post it up over in the 'how-to' section at svtperformance.com, and i'll add it to 'the complete how-to' thread i created that's stickied at the top.

It's been on svtperformance for a while..... I think it's a Sticky.

Stock sleeve next to the much stronger aftermarket.

Used a big socket and my BFH to put the new sleeve in.

Put everything together with the factory .032 shim,,,this gave me about .0025 end play.This is too much so out came everything again.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/HOSTIL1/3167.jpg

I replaced the factory .032 shim with a .034 shim.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/HOSTIL1/3172.jpg

This put me right at about .0005,,,good enough.

I did this while I had the tranny out for the Cooling Mod.

I did this mod a couple years back,,, thought maybe some of the cobra owners would be interested in a little writeup. :thumbup:

First I removed the front part of the tranny case.At this point you take the stock unit out and replace it with the 26 spline. Very easy.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/HOSTIL1/3156.jpg

This is the stock piece compared to the 26 spline.

This is the bearing cup and the factory .032 shim removed from the front cover.

To remove the stock TOB Sleeve I just used a BFH.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/HOSTIL1/3162.jpg

A few smacks and out it came.

Exactly what i'm looking for in my next car. is that on the stock IRS?

No, I swapped to the solid when I installed the kenne bell.

read some of the intro's from the past few months here--pure comedy.

I read some of the others... I guess I didn't get it too bad.

Thanks for all the compliments.

That's an understatement of the century. Nice cars, what's the notch turning?

I posted a video of the notch, at the bottom of my original post.

Thanks again for the "warm" welcome.

I'm driving the cobra to the track Saturday.... should have a new best.

Noobs don't welcome noobs. Not to mention, the Shelby is an abomination. That's a retarded dream car if I ever heard of one.

I didn't welcome him,, I was admiring his car.

Might might to get a fuel system in there, I can just turn up the boost :bangbang:

True,,, turbos FTW. On a Race car.

34 with a 16 year old son? fuck..

Yes,,,

you look 14

Thanks,,, lol. Actually, that's my 16 year old son.

Doesn't matter to me. $1000 it is.

 

Twin GT35r Cobra vs 2.8KB Cobra. The Cobra will lose.

 

Welcome noob.

2.8KB with a touch of Nitrous.... just in case
