BTW,

My reference to the 2000 Cobra R was my way of saying that Ford didn't think that a factory aluminum bellhousing was going to be good enough for a car with that pedigree...i.e. a hot street/track car. They found it necessary to upgrade to a steel scattershield. That's in a car with "only" 385hp...about 100hp less than what a lot of guys are running in a car with only 3/16" of fiberglass between them and the drivetrain.
