oldford- i have an after market HU but its **** so i am getting a new one in the next couple of weeks. also, i am planing on a kicker 10" L7 in a ported box and a kicker dx500.1 amp and a rockford fosgate 4 gauge wiring kit. prally going with alpine head unit. i am also have the old tint ripped off and doing limo on rear and 1/4 windows and 20% on the front sides. once i get the windshield replaced i will get a limo strip. seats are in great shape i was going to do black leather but i read that in the 95 cobras only 66 were made with white paint and saddle (cloth) interior so i think i am gonna keep it that way. cobras come stock with white faced gauges also. a lowering kit with all new shocks and control arms is in the near future.
trimdrip- i know about pulling the cover off and counting gears. on my last mustang i did that and put the wrong 90W back in and it ate the clutches up and dropped the c-clip and when the light turned green at the drag strip i nailed it and the c-clip went through the gears and shucked all the teeth off the ring gear and about half of them off the pinion gear. it did back off the line and we pushed it on the trailer. $1200 later i had an auburn pro series diff and 4.10 gears. i know its geared low cause you have to shift fast and 1st gear is almost pointless.
how does that sound?

You'll end up close to 2 3/4 turns for something like 2.73s....3 full turns for a 3.08....3 1/4 turns for 3.23....3 1/2 turns for 3.55...3 3/4 turns for 3.73 and a little more than 4 turns for 4.10s It's not as exact as counting teeth but it's a quick and dirty way to get you in the ball park. And If I had $400 to spend on a daily driver I'd get some good tires.
