Default new toys!!! :)

so, jusy got finished feeding my sone and checked my email and got a nice break finally...

25K mile 03 Cobra IRS is officially mine. as well as a NIB Magnaflow cat back, 2 extra halfshafts, an IRS brace, and the driveshaft (so i dont have to do the annoying pinion flange swap).

picked up for the paltry sum of $400 after i give him my decently built SRA (31 spline Auburn Pro, Mosers, FRPP diff. cover, painted black, ohhhhhhh boy ).

should bolt right up to my T56 so no issues there.

scrapping the 408W and just doing a mild (~380-400rwhp) 331 now.

just want something kind of unique so this should fit the bill. dont really care about it not being as strong.

ill get this moved to tech when i start moving foward on it when i finally get my garage/carport finished so anyone that wants can follow along and copy if you feel so inclined

pics to come this weekend.

yeah its not bad, but dont forget i traded him my solid rear too. as well as my U/LCA (forgot to mention that).

kinda off topic but Justin, i just realized you live in Cape Cod.

if youre not busy on Feb 13th, see if you can come to Factory Five Racing, they're having a really big meet there and its pretty cool cause its all Ford/AC Cobra guys (well, kit Cobra's which are kinda better IMO).

its in Wareham MA, right off the highway. i think it starts at like 10...
