Now what?!?
What should I get next? I have an exhaust leak, which is comming from the headers, and is not fixable. New headers? Hmmm, maybe.
Then again, I could get a new MAF, and TB. A new 75 Prom-M MAF, and a Brand X TB would work wonders for this little Cobra. And on another hand, a shift light, and line lock are good investments too. What do you guys and gals think? Any help would make my choice more substaniated or whatever. Anyway, later. |
Why is it not fixable BWC? I have to fix mine every year or more. Nothing more irritating to me than a leaking exhaust header. Piff, piff, piff. I just have to go out and repair mine when it occurs. Really a small job though compared to others that coul occur.

Well, it's not that they can't be fixed, I'm just looking for a reason to get some longtubes.
I have to make up my mind by Friday, or the wife <read: money manager> won't let me do it anytime soon. Ahhh, too many choices.......my head is gonna explode!!!! |
Ok lets think about this one....fix an annoying exhaust leak or get more goodies to make it faster and still deal with the annoying exhaust leak? I think that is self explainatory!!!! http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/frown.gif

See, now that's the problem. It's really annoying. I mean REALLY annoying.
But you're probably right, new MAF and TB. Now all I have to do is convince the wife that it's a good idea. Heh heh heh. Do any other guys out there have this same problem? ------------------ The Black Mamba 11.2@124 |
I say fix the leak. I am
tired of dealing with it. When is the question? I manage the money because you would spend it all and then we would have to live in a cardboard box. |
No, we would be living in some pretty damn fast cars!!! J/K hon.
Guys, defend me here,..........please. |
Oh dude, she just whizzed in your Rice Crispies! http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif
Sell about $300 or so worth of her stuff, then you can get the BBK longtubes & H-pipe. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/wink.gif On a side note, I had a header leak (Dan should remember the sound from Columbus!) because the flange piece was warped to hell. I know that little "piff-piff-piff" sound someone above was talking about. It was a complete pain in the *** to deal with, but now that it's fixed, I don't know why I didn't have it done last week! My mileage increased a little, too.

Sell my stuff? Ha! Let's see
the car is mine, the computer, the tv's etc and he uses them all. So no benefit to him. He would not do that. Cause I can retaliate and prevent him from driving the Cobra. Yeah, live in a really fast car with a 7 year old. Hmmm, maybe I should sell the playstation and games. |
I'll deal with you when you get home! http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/wink.gif

Hey those Big G.E. refrigerator boxes look pretty comfy.. you could cut some holes in it for windows! http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/wink.gif
I think you should fix the leak.. I HATE leaks, they're the worst sounding, and make the car sound like a beater.

Ok, I've decided, new headers. Sorry hon, you lose. I'm going to fix the leak in the old ones, and use them on something else later on. Now all I need is a set of wheels and DR's or slicks. <wink wink> Later.
|
I think you should get the slicks next http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif. I just got a new set of M/T Drags 26/10.5/15 last week. I can't wait untill this weekend I'm going to smoke the whole state out when I fry them. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif

Right on! My father-in-law is convinced that the Cobra doesn't need slicks. But he's a weird one. Ask SkardoM, he looks like Jerry Garcia. It's freaky, really. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/tongue.gif
|
Ahhh, but I have the ckbook. (and the car)
And dad thinks we should get leak fixed next to the slicks b/c what use is racing it with the leak. And most important of all, I WANT THAT LEAK FIXED!!! |
lol
I thought he was pretty cool, MAYBE a lil weird but a nice guy for sure http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif And yes.. the resemblance is eerie http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/wink.gif |
Yeah, my dad is weird. But
you get use to it. He is actually very smart, just dumb in the simple thinking thing. |
yeah i liked him http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif
|
I like his car better, to bad
it is pieces right now. |
Just throw some of that Bar Leak stuff into the oil and buy yourself the MAF and TB. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif
You could also stop using the synthetic headlight fluid and just use regular. |
