I don't have much experience though so if you know what you're doing it could probably be done in 1 depending on how many coats of paint you decide to put on. Had to run to autozone a couple different times to get a breaker bar and some ratchets. Also had to borrow the neighbor's jack. Think it turned out very well.

If you don't mind describing the process I'd appreciate it. __________________ Parting out 2003 SVT Cobra Air/Fuel http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums...003-cobra.html Engine http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums...003-cobra.html
