Buffed and waxed the right side, roof, and the back. Then, I got tired of sweating so I will do the rest tomorrow.

Thanks Terry, looking forward to getting it in and hitting the 2-3 with confidence. I also bought some Koni yellows which will help me keep it between the trees.

White, Did it feel awesome to drive it again?


It ran good but it didn't pull as hard as I remembered, I guess my f250 with a 275 tune runs better than I thought:beerdrink:. I am really thinking about throwing my 8 rib setup with the 10% o/d pulley and going for broke. On a side note, the D specs helped the car hook up better than ever.

Put the 93r BAMA tune in (first time). Went down to the station and filled er up with some 93 octane and went cruising.

WOW! Lots of difference between it and the mild tune I had in it. Runs great.

But, I'm burnt on that loud ass raspy ass exhaust! I'm thinking about the PYPES SUPER SYSTEM. I really don't know any one who has that system but I've been hearing good things. I don't mind the loudness that much, but that rasp at 2500 r's is driving me crazy.

drove it to order some exterior parts.

Then I drove around A LOT today.. Love the Cobra. Looked for something to kill... But ofcourse.. when you have a fast car nobody is around to squash. Go figure.

Installed Roush Extreme exhaust. No LTH's yet. The car sounds awesome, but is a lot louder. I can't imagine what this car will sound like with headers.

Installed my valve cover breathers and recharged my a/c. I had a shop align my car today and seems like they did a lot better job than the last place I tried. It was one of the most expensive alignments I have ever had but at least this shop didn't tear my tie rod end boots.

Fed Ex just stopped by, dropping off my new Koni adjustable shocks from Sam Strano (rears only, fronts are on back order) along with a dead pedal I ordered from CJPony. I can throw the dead pedal on in fifteen minutes but the shocks will have to wait until this weekend I think.

Well about midnight or so(technically today), after cleaning my shop up enough that I would pull the car in, I put it on jack stands, pulled the tires and wheels off in preparation for installing struts/shocks, springs, adj. camber plates, adj. panhard bar and while its down the clutch. And I'll probably experiment with some resinators and mufflers as well. To continue tonight.

Today I will be installing my pa alternator and once everything checks out, my twin 62mm bbk tb. Monday, the car is getting a catch can setup (instead of breathers only), new shocks, back to stock 3.55 gears, and a dynotune. Soon to come (in the next few months)
: 14 psi.

Weird note: I may have been at 8psi all along. Not running a boost gauge, but I'll check the boost at gearheads on Monday.
