Mine is Mark III FFR with a powedercoated frame. I went 5 bolt all around and 4 wheel disc brakes with a 3 link rear suspension.
My engine is a 331 with trickflow twisted wedge heads, 1.7:1 roller rockers, e303 cam and Mass-Flo fuel injection along with a 250 shot. I have equipped my car with a heater, heated seats, wipers and a soft top.
I have 295/50R15's on the back and 235/60R15's on the fron with 3:73 gears. This combination and my T5Z has me running at about 1800 rpm at 70 mph (cruising speed in these parts).
I have added cup ho;ders and a rear glove compartment. I have lowered my trunk floor and mounted my battery under my trunk floor over the diff.
I had it painted at Class 1 Collision in Fort McMurray. At the time I was a customer.... now I am the service manager there on the automotive side.
i have added power brakes and and a quick ratio power rack.
Next weekend I am adding a moderate soud system that I can listen to around town or plug my custom fit ear plugs into on the highway. I will also be upgrading to HID headlamps at the same time ( not that I need it here with only an hour of darkness in the summer time!!)
we have done a couple of roadtrips with it so far. the last one was about 3000 miles from Fort Mac to vancouver Island and back.
It drove like a dream and left 'Vettes in the dust.
MrMustang.... I "think" I may have used some of your advise from the FFCobra site 
BTW, I appreciate all Cobra's. They all represent a persons dreams, aspirations and hard work...... same as me.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to disagree. At an average weight of 175 lbs per "cool" member, that would only be 11.428571 members! Hell, I bet Jamo alone......well, never mind!
Welcome no matter how many tons of cool members we have.  |

Yep, just like a red mouse to cheese -- I'm just drawn to them. |

Maybe it's Patrickt's long lost brother.
