parts that fit for a deal or not? Reply #8 – July 06, 2006, 11:50:09 PM $80 for E7's with new springs is a good deal. I paid $50 for a clean set of stock E7's. Quote Selected

Reply #9 – July 06, 2006, 11:53:39 PM So is this a mass air meter or throttle body for $25?A cobra throttle body would work fine however it won't give you any gains unless you have a matching intake manifold or port match your current manifold.A mass air meter will be useless to you unless you convert your car to a full HO and do a mass air conversion.Whichever heads you get, have them checked so you know they are good before you attempt to install them.

parts that fit for a deal or not? Reply #11 – July 07, 2006, 10:51:55 AM That's it for head choices. If you want any other kind of heads that are an improvement you'll almost have to go aftermarket, at least $500 a pair.Or, if you want, you could get the GT-40P heads found on explorers, but those will run you a lot more than $80, too.

parts that fit for a deal or not? Reply #13 – July 07, 2006, 01:23:37 PM I've never heard of a 65 MM mass air meter. I can almost guarantee it's a throttle body. What year cobra is this throttle body from? Quote Selected

Reply #14 – July 08, 2006, 09:50:48 PM dont know it was a craiglist sale so very little detail. i dont know if i will be able to afford the heads and spring. i need new tires and an alinment when i get home so bank is broke for now. i might just get the heads and no spring.what would i have to do for gt-40 and what year explorer would i find them on? how do i tell if the are gt-40s or not? i though i read something about gt-40s having problems on install?
