alot of people here are very knowledgeable about cobras in general, wouldn't hurt to ask any questions here, Mfj has an 01 and he knows what hes talkin about.


Edit: Mfjs is now far from stock lol but he went through 2 stock blocks and alot of money so yeah lol.

i have a Q for the gear heads out there, i too am a gear head but a confused one, i have a 99 svt cobra with a kenne bell s/c running 12lbs of boost, i have the independent rear suspension(IRS) i have a 4:10 gear ratio in there now and i hate it, literaly, i cant get the car over 120 without damaging it, i dont know what i should replace it with without compromising a whole world of power, i was thinking (3:55 or 3:27) or somthing, any suggestions? also i think this gear is messing up my ride, it vibrates, any one else with this problem?

stock gears is 3:27...

In your case, i would go with 3.55 gears.... You are not in need of SOO much gear, considering the low end rpm torque you got from your kenne bell.

3.55s in your t45 is about equivalent to 3.73s in an 04 cobra.
