I have the older sp61 with a bigger wasgate on the shelves waiting to be installed. I need oil lines, any recommendation on to what sizes and where I should get my fittings?

Removed the rad, fan, belts, front fenders and liners, crash bar and front mount. Need to drop the driveshaft, fuel lines, engine mounts and random lines/ hoses and the heart should be out this coming week.

Ive never replaced one.. have you tried Rockauto?
Yea I see Rockauto has a Cardone re-manufactured or refurbish but not sure if brand name matters or it's all the same. Also what else should I get while doing this? I was thinking of getting the steel braided lines from DM for the power steering and some bushings, etc.

I believe they are from a '96 GT wheels. Credit goes to 87witmoreboost, here is his build thread, but he does not come on here much anymore.

They are 17x8.5, although the stamping just has 8J. I believe the Cobra wheels are 17x9 like in his thread. Same tire sizes, 245/40/17 and 255/40/17.

Thanks for the kind words, gentlemen!

Finally got my clutch kit, motor and tranny mount and steel braided clutch line installed and my god I love Spec's stage 2+ clutch now, the pedal is so damn light it's better than stock and it bites nicely but I've only had it under 3500 rpm until it's broken in. Also when I shift the tranny doesn't move around anymore or shift over from the torque twist I love it.

nice^. well, i tried to go for a ride, but my starter just clicks. the damn thing is only 6 months old. time to find a better quality starter.
since i couldn't go for a ride, i spent more time online looking for a new clutch kit and 1pc driveshaft. :(

it's been doing it off and on for a while. i even had a jumperbox hooked up to it. when it happened the other day, i had someone hit the starter while i turned the key and it fired right up.

Those wheels came stock on 96 and 97 Cobras. 94-95 Cobras had the same style but the dark area inside the spoke was polished. They are 17x8, think offset is around +32 but not 100%. They are a fairly cheap, strong wheel that actually look really good on MK3s if not going for hellaflush. 98 Cobras had a 5 spoke wheel similar to the 95R. 99 and 01s are same size (IIRC) with a bit more offset. 03-04s had 17x9s.
