Today..my Cobra arrives:rock: Reason for excitement? I have seen her 3 days in 20 months! Why? Because of an 8 month deployment and a shotty performance shop. So...where as she is driving..there is noise in the valve train. I dont know how bad she is but will hear her today in person. I finally pulled the plug on the shop and told them to load her up she is comming home. I am sure it will take this next comming up deployment money to make her 100% again. I leave in a few months for a 6 monther. My 4th deployment to the Middle East which will give me 2 years and 7 months there. Will throw some pics up when she gets here. Wouldn't doubt a top end rebuild will be in the works. -Shane

I'm pretty sure I wont be doing any boosted runs till I get her FULLY checked out and retuned. I just dont have the money for that at the moment and doubt I will till my deployment. I might be able to scrap up enough to get her to Dantes for a look over maybe tune. Pretty sure we will find issues but thats part of getting her healthy again. -Shane

Providing the "valve train noise" doesnt sound like she is eating herself from within I will def bring her out. But like I said..no boosting till I am comfy with her state of being. :nonono:

Car is home.......augh. Dirty...def valve train noise, coolant is very low, clutch is undriveable but think thats cause its a spec3+ and I am not use to it. I am gonna get some coolant and fill it up and run her and see if she over heats and anything. Shane

I def need someone who knows what a Spec 3+ should feel like to drive this thing. It sickens me to even drive it. They shop didnt finish it..I took it because they were taking WAYYYY too long. So I have to finish this up when I get the time and money. Here she is washed though...shitty pic..sorry it was getting late.
