Default anyone with a fordmuscle subscription?

Hey guys just seeing if anyone on here has a subscription to http://www.fordmuscle.com
i used to but let it run out and there is an article http://www.fordmuscle.com/archives/2...BlowerPorting/ on porting the 03-04 cobra blower that i would really like to read (but do not want to pay the price) so if anyone could help me out that would be greatly appreciated!

Kyle

ya ive talked to that guy before. He is actually a state trooper which is kinda funny. THanks for the information! and i think there are actually a couple other cobras with eatons on still running 9's now

I know of a couple places that port blowers, its just im trying to get hte most out of this combo for cheap, and i am looking into porting the blower myself over winter.

Guys i have talked to said it was pretty easy to do as long as you had the proper tools so i figure why not try

is it just eatons and no nitrous? ive heard of people doing it with ported blowers and nitrous but not just the eatons.

*sorry to get it off track* i dont know of websites that show you how to and i dont have a subscription to fordmuscle either

I read the entire article, and it doesnt really say how to do it, other than take blower off, send to so and so, reinstall blower, make tons of power. Only shows a shot of the underside, and a shot of the blowers inlet. Says most of the work was done on the inside. They used a 2.93" pulley and made 488hp and 457lbs of torque at 12psi with whatever custom tune they had before the blower upgrade.

I had a buddy who ported his lightning blower himself.. Few thousand miles later the thing took a dump and completely destroyed itself.. Just pay someone to have it done correctly.. in the end it'll save you money. Or just buy a ported blower already
