I bought Todd's hats to put together a Cobra 2000 R Brembo kit with 13" Coleman rotors on TCE hats. http://www.dariusrudis.com/2005_Brakes/images/img_5527.jpg ...
Tony, this has come up before, from time to time here on the rrax. If don't find any love from searching the archives, i'll float it to my general ford list....
I know what the "insert" is. it's on the cold face of the head, and receives that long stud for the a/c bracket. i'm guessing that if swapped, that insert...
Threaded rod is typically made from absolute garbage steel. It's tough to find good stuff. Certainly not something you're going to find at Home Depot. I'd...
... Pete, I'd be shocked of those holes aren't tapped. Ford heads are ambitexterious, so the "hot hole" on one side becomes the "cold hole" if the head is...
Thanks Pete! I got it fixed this weekend when Scott Whitehead brought some bolts with him to our VIR event. The bolt fit in the back of the head perfectly....
Thanks to all those who answered my question about the Bullitt kit. I understand that as I get better, I'll want to change things again, but right now I'm...
Depends on what your car currently has for brakes. If it is a late model (94+) and has ABS doing it is a no-brainer. What the full kits give you is often a new...
It is 5/8" thread, Scott crossthreaded it. ;) Either that, or I would have to admit I am........... (wrong). So I am sticking with 5/8" story... ;) Darius...
I could not possibly have cross-threaded it with that tiny little 3/4" drive Impact gun! :-) Actually, I gave Tony a handful of bolts - both in 9/16-11 (UNC)...

Hello, As I believe the Bullitt suspension is greatly improved over a GT. I think you would eventually be unhappy with it and be looking to improve it very ...

It was the smaller of the two bolts that you gave me Scott but when I go back to the car this weekend, I'll put a wrench on it to verify the size. =0)...

I'm getting ready to run my second HPDE event at pocono next week, and after reviewing photos from my last event I have a question about the rear suspension. A...
Were you running the track CW or CCW? Makes a difference to me when trying to diagnose the issues. An off the wall guess would be you need to upgrade your sway...

I wanted to add a more effective wing to the rear of the 86. The current one is still the stock unit. Is there a off the shelf wing I can add, like the...
What is your definition of "works"? Actually the most effective wing according to actual tests was the SVO bi-plane wing. However adding downforce to the rear...
