No, they went a while back. I now have my stock flywheel though that is in great shape...if you need an 11in Alum...

HOLY **** does my clutch grab now...

Got the Spec 3+ with steel flywheel and upgraded to 26 spline on Sat..Can't wait to get this thing broken in so I can really get into it..

Kinda like a digital clutch, it is either ON or OFF

Should hold the new Whipple when it comes, look out Kraut boy

I believe that the modular flywheel is different from the 5.0/5.8 flywheel.

Mine is 157 tooth...



When does the whipple come out?

Still breaking in the new clutch, so NO not yet


Sean, the new 3.4L Whipples just started shipping, like yesturday. So I am going to keep an eye on the numbers they are getting and may just have to go that route.

We have a guy here in the MACA who is putting the first one on this weekend... will keep you informed.

Russ, enjoy your lead while you have it

And Ryan, thinking I will be "blowing past you" as well, pun intended


Ken

Only on the street. And if you do it on the track it will only be for about a year. Because the car will see Dr Ellis next year. I know what I want for a short block. Now Im just waiting for the heads that match it to be released.

Yeah, well, I've been lucky when my chebbys broke down, both the V6 and the LS1 died within a yard of my garage. The difference was that the V6 had a shorted fan (it's hot-wired so it runs when the key's in the on position, but for some odd reason, it also fixed my gauge lights) and it needed water and a cool down period, while the Z has a spun rod bearing. I know, I spun a rod bearing on a stock, low rpm motor, bouncing off the rev limiter to show the ricers what a real engine sounds like has its consequences.

So quick question, how many Cobras were made in 03-04? Versus how many LS1 equipped F-Bodies? Not too mention the price difference. And what a shock, a ford/mustang magazine declares the ford a winner.

Oh and it was just over 19k between 03 & 04 (combined) and I know there were well over 12k WS6 Trans Ams made, and that doesn't count the Z28's & SS's....and that is JUST 2002. Apples to apples would be a better comparison IMHO. They take a car and test it against a car that has been out of production for 2 years by the time their car was built.......

Now don't get me wrong, I looked at an 04 Cobra, I just couldn't justify that much money for a mild performance increase in the straight line.....and I prefer the ride, looks, interiors and most everything better about the F-Bods. I respect the Cobra's ability to go fast, just not my cup of tea.
