Well that's interesting. Do you spec it that way? Do you have any other Kirkham parts?

I didn't spec the car that way; that's the way it came from Shelby. And the rear-end is the only part from Kirkham (as far as I am aware).

Why can't we all just appreciate the differences in our cars and respect one another's unique traits for what they are? You know, that each car is beautiful and flawless in it's own special way. When we all can appreciate that fact then we'll all get along, and the world will be a better place.

Did you forget the P.S.? You know, the one that excludes FFRs, BDRs and SPFs?

Hmmmm, I don't even remember writing it. Perhaps my evil twin, Ratrickt, is on the loose again. You know he's quite unstable....

Go out and find 100 or even 200 Cobras, even some "originals". Line them up. I would be willing to bet that you won't find two that are alike. That's the "cool" part.

It's not particularly interesting - they all come with the alum diff housing.

Hmmm, I tend to agree with you Doug. Sounds more like a gratuitous smack against the quality of the Shelby from an elitist Kirkham owner. I'm a little shocked that Rod would stoop that low....

Oh Puh-leeeze. Spare us the diatribe of "Can we all just get along?"

Go drill some holes in your trunk to make way for an even larger light show.

Doug, it's not interesting to YOU. But you must realize that we're different people, right? So will you allow me to find something interesting?

I'm not familiar with what CSX's come equipped with from SAI and I have a desire to learn more about them for my own edification.
