Det_Riot Posted April 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Might be making a purchase on a baller project that I've always wanted to do =] Updates will come once the deal is made as I don't wanna jynx it. As for my car, probably gonna put in my cobra rack and shaft tomorrow! Atleast the shaft because it's only two bolts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Det_Riot Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Last post fell through, so ignore that =\ Aside from this, went to the track yesterday. Turns out I got more issues than I originally thought. I guess my car makes some whining noise that sounds like a turbo when I'm driving down the freeway. News to me as I can't hear anything other than exhaust and my trunk flopping around.Also lost my fan after one run at the track, I think I should be okay once I put some new connectors on it cuz the old ones looked kinda burnt up from when I wired my fan in like a moron.

Turns out I got more issues than I originally thought. I guess my car makes some whining noise that sounds like a turbo when I'm driving down the freeway. News to me as I can't hear anything other than exhaust and my trunk flopping around.Any suspicions? My car makes a similar sound, I believe it is intake related on mine.Also lost my fan after one run at the track, I think I should be okay once I put some new connectors on it cuz the old ones looked kinda burnt up from when I wired my fan in like a moron. nvm what i was going to say here, I was unclear on what you had going on.Project never ends.....the project never ends.....STORY OF MY LIFEEdit**** how in the hell do i get rid of those pictures, I deleted them in the post, but they are still there?

Det_Riot Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 lol idk we'll just leave them there. If I had to guess, I think the whining sound is coming from engine back. So possibly clutch, trans, or rear end. I kinda don't care at the moment since I'm gonna be swapping it all of it anyways ya know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1997cobra Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Yeah, first instinct would be the broken trans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Det_Riot Posted April 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Thanks to 1997cobra, he found a badass deal on a t56 swap so I'm going to pick it up on Thursday! It's 70% complete, just need the bellhousing and get my driveshaft shortened and I'm good to go! Trans came out of a Kenny Brown Cobra, comes with 6 puck spec clutch, pro 5.0 shifter, crossmember, yoke, fork, and is already set up to accept our speedo! 10 spline input which isn't totally desirable but it'll do for now, and 31 spline output. Gear ratios are as follows:1- 2.97 2- 2.07 3- 1.43 4- 1.00 5- .80 6- .62And to ask a question with it, is a 4.10 rear gear going to be too much or does the t56 gearing make it a little better? What about if I were to put a 150 shot on my car this summer? Would a 4.10 be okay or would first gear be totally useless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95opal Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 First gear is useless 410s will have you shifting all day. To me the six speed is a cool wow factor but in all reality its just a 4 speed with double overdrive. Works great with high reving mod motors or 7k 5.0 screamers but for a typical HCI 5.0 not so great. Then again thats just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1997cobra Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Ok, here are some gear ratio comparisonst56________ t51- 2.97 _____3.352- 2.07 _____1.993- 1.43 _____1.334- 1.00 _____1.005- .80 6- .62______0.68So, while the t56 does have a "double overdrive" , it doesnt change your final gear by that much. It does add an extra gear that falls between the t5s 4th and 5th gears, which will be extremely usefulcheck out how my t56 fits in1- 2.66 2- 1.78 3- 1.30 4- 1.00 5- .80 6- .62Mine is considered "close ratio", which happens to be the same as a standard 03/04 trans. You got the cobra r ratios in that trans, which is better suited to the torquey 5.4l, so it should be a ok match to your 5.0. Also, notice how much longer the t56s first is compared to the t5. You're going to have to make up for that, play with a speed calculator a little bit. From my playing around with it, 3.55s should bring you back to almost stock first and final gear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Det_Riot Posted April 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Update: My car is stupid.Nah just kidding, got my cobra steering rack and shaft in. HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!! World of improvement over the stock sloppy GT. 3 turns from full lock to full lock. If your steering rack is getting sloppy, I HIGHLY recommend getting a cobra rack!In other news, I still have a battery box to install, along with export tails, SVO side skirts, finish my side exhaust, buy/install new trans, rear seat delete, install my cage, and get this POS painted before Mustang Week! Needless to say the crunch is on. Gonna start shopping around for paint this week as tthat is the biggest thing to finish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Det_Riot Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Decided to finally begin working on her again as I get her more and more ready for MWNewest purchase was a set of 14x175 QA1 Springs from Kyle (kyle5.0). Should of taken more pictures of the process as it wasn't that hard to do but by the time I finished one side, I just wanted to get it completely done. I know most of you can't tell a difference but this did end up with me raising the car by like 1/2".

Det_Riot Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 So that leaves me with a set of unidentified 10" hypercoil springs. Anyone need some? =]Still to be done before MW, well a whole bunch of things. RSD is being worked on with 1997cobra and myself, should have some solid progress this weekend, along with exhaust fab and hopefully a transmission swap =] Which brings me to my next good news, transmission arrives on Wednesday!
