im really excited about my project

[phatstang]

as most of you know when i bought my 1994 Cobra the guy i bought it from told me he "just"carbed the original motor.
i bought the car with a head gasket leak,i have the motor that was in it just about ready to come out and i bought a dss 306 bullet with the afr 185 heads, and it came with a original cobra upper and lower, with all the injectors and fuel rail,i won the wire harness on ebay, and im only lacking a few small odds and ends to have her going this spring.
i still need that tube that goes from throttle body to passenger side header,thats about the most major part i need for now,so id say im ok.
its been a while since ive had a car that was intended to be worked on and i actually did the work,what a blast.....i love new bolts that dirt doesnt fall of and go in my eyes evry five minutes......lol
ill get some pics next time i go out to mess with her:boobies:

[hangemhigh]

man, sound nice. i'm def. feeling you on getting the old stuff off and gone. that's how i'm doing it. mines got 90k, so everythings a bitch to remove. even though i ache like hell from lying on the floor, i'm loving seeing it come together a little at a time. good luck with your ride!

[82coupe351]

Good luck man.

On the tube thing, my dad made one out of soft copper and bent it and flared the ends up. It worked out great.

[Stang506]

good info

[phatstang]

im gonna still try and find one though....thanks for the info guys,if all else fails ill try it out

[coupefastback]

I may have one of those tubes but if I remember right when you picked up the motor it had a spacer so a stock tube will probably not work unless you are not using the spacer. Look forward to seeing some pictures of your car.

[phatstang]

hmmm....i forgot about the spacer....i would have to get one made then i guess.....thanks for the reply.....

[91Notch]

good luck with the project

as strange as it may seem,there werent 10 guys standing around when i pulled my motor out today,just this little guy my son Preston,he was the biggest help i could ask for,he talked me through my fit when things werent going as planned(engine hoist on dirt floor sucked)it fell off the ply wood...
i couldnt have asked for more,My Son helped me pull my motor,hes 8 years old,no one else.........I hope he remembers this day Forever,i will.....

I'll give you a gallon of black paint for free if you would please re-paint that car.

[phatstang]

lol....thanks for the offer but ill pass....:lo:

[BigWheelinBubba]

I'll give you a gallon of black paint for free if you would please re-paint that car.Thats kinda harsh, but i have to agree with you. I never liked the paint on that car, but then again i've never seen it in person. On the other hand i prefer to not stand out.. blending in somewhat decreases your chances of getting attention from the men in blue..

:sorry: Parke, if you like it thats all that matters. :cool:

[phatstang]

its exactly what i wanted when i was looking so im not that offended,the paint looks better in person,and no i dont think riding dirty is an option....lol:pow:

[daveg]

Man, does that looks good. I am glad to see it done. I remember all the messages saying 'fuck it! I am gonna just sell it.' I am glad to see it complete. Hopefully my 86 will hit the street pretty soon and we can play before the snow flies.

[phatstang]

ive got a few cars that want to go out friday call my brother and lets set up a spot to meet up or you can ride or whatever

Sounds cool. The baby is going to be with mommy this weekend, and I would rather do car shit than get drunk by a campfire...for once.
