The 5.0 cammer crate engine is a great idea I could drop one in my cobra here in a couple of years instead of trading it in.

Too cool,

Ahh, I'm not too impressed. I'd just as soon save my money and put a blower on my car. But maybe the engine will be popular in N/A racing applications.

Isn't that the prototype cammer in the FR500? 305 with 415hp?

Default If you want speed, buy a Civic?

Los,

What type of SPEED is Honda packaging with their Civics these days? And is that legal? Sorry, I couldn't resist tying your quote to selling crack. Hmm maybe you should put "If you want a super fun little jot around town, buy a Civic." Yeah, that's good. Doesn't link you to a crack dealer.

What are the mods on your Civic if you don't mind me inquiring?

I'm really not baggin' on you Los, I read your quote and it just made me laugh. Thanks. I used to be the proud owner of a 1.8L 16-V Dual Over-head Cam Toyota. He was a nice little ride. Stock, all upper RPM speed though. Hugged the corners. Engineered that way. Good cars if that's what floats your boat friend.

P.S. I'll take a SVT Cobra-R please. Just one. I don't want to be selfish. I'll leave some for my friends here at Mustangworks. Nice rides.

SMOKE! You're car is awesome. Black's a tough color to keep clean, but it looks like your doing a fine job! Why the Rousch/Eibach Sport springs versus total package? Drop rate or performance? Eibachs in rear? 1.5" - 2.0" drop on those?

Cool Thanks guys

Appreciate the kind words.

Taking donations so I put that new 5.0L Modular in there.

Answer:
I ordered the ROUSH stage 2 pkg with the car and found out later that in the 94-98 time frame some parts were out-sourced. My springs were the same spring rate of the Sport Eibachs. Either way the drop in front was about 1" and in the back 3/4".

Again, thanks for the compliments. Just dread getting stationed over seas. (take it or not?)
