dont know yet, pickin it up either today or tomorrow i bet. i did all the front stuff myself but the rear required some welding and i dont know how and dont trust my dad to do it . it was cool just running around with the front upgraded though, you could basically point the car anywhere you wanted and thats where it went, not much under-steer if any.

and thats a newly rebuilt 8.8 with CF clutches n crap and 3.55s

As far as I know the 99/01 cobra bumper is the same.

Did your co-worked take responsibility.

Those things almost never fail like that.

What are you going to do?
Depends. Anyone know if these motors are interference or not? After it happened I tore the front cover down to confirm and haven't touched it since. It's been sitting at work and I've been driving my other car.
