Mesa's door struts work great plus they are easy to access. All the struts I've used lose strength after a while and you have to replace. With the struts in the door it makes it much easier to access. Plus the doors move more linear, less acceleration at the end of the travel. FWIW, I've tried...
John B, can you emial me? [email protected]
Then i can get your info over to Rich on the FGT blog. It sounds like Ford may have a 2 to 3 month wait too, if you have an FGT title...
Alex, Hennessy has started hoarding parts for the "Venom". I heard they bought 50 transaxles and whatever parts they could find. I may move my 401k into Ricardo parts for the long haul. Might be worth more than gold?
Ken, that Spec clutch comes with an FGT flywheel. I talked to them and they...
Stillen and AP racing offered beefier clutches than Ford with 5 return springs instead of 4 and stouter material. They pulled them off the market until their are 20+ units. The FGT blog is doing a group purchase from AP in the UK and has around 14-16 signed up. They asked me to see if there is...
I'm still having stalling issues. If I don't blip the throttle when coming to a stop, it stalls.
Pete, I had this same problem. i had to blip throttle to get it to not stall at idle at about 950rpm at about 4000 miles. I had a retune, no help. I finally found a little carb cleaner on the...

Wow, that's the way to sort out a car. Approached like a true scientist. Then again, your whole build was scientifically approached. I wish I kept careful notes like that. Your first track day had to be better than sex, considering all the work you've put in to yield those results.
One thing I...
This may be 5 year old, stale information but i remember there was a joint in the rear brake line in the chase by the drivers side door. it was a real pain to get at to finally seal. I remember buying a line wrench and having to cut a few inches off to be able to get it to fully tighten. Are you...

John, Nice job on the Cobra! That's about as nice a build as I've seen. Holy $#it that thing is fast.
It's funny, you thought i was driving too fast, I thought you were driving too fast. I guess we are used to having the wheel.
I think you'd do a bang up job if you decide to get one....
