THE 3D-PRINTED cobra PROJECT BY AIRWOLF 3D
3D Printing A Muffler Mockup – Volume 1
The lastest project has arrived! Follow along as we build a Factory 5 Cobra Replica. We will share the progress every step of the way, case studies will cover automotive customization with additive manufacturing. We will be 3d printing many custom parts, prototypes, jigs, fixtures, tooling, molds and more!
LEARN ABOUT MUFFLERCobra Kit Car with 3D Printing – Volume 2
Testing the viability of the engine/trans/rear end in the donor car before beginning to dismantle! Also finished building the support structure for the kit car body. Note the yellow 3D printed TPU end caps on the extrusion support bar. Follow along as we build a Factory 5 Cobra Replica.
3D Printing A Ford Mustang Rear Axle Seal Installer – Volume 3
While replacing the axles, we noticed our axles seals needed replacement. After removing the seals, we discovered that replacing the seals with new versions would require a bit of thoughtful planning…and maybe a 3D printer.

In this installment of Project Factory Five Cobra, we’ll be discussing replacing the timing cover seal on our Ford 302 small block engine. The timing cover seal is designed to seal the engine and keep oil or pressure from escaping. The seal has a metallic outer body and is “pressed” into the timing cover. As these seals age (our 5.0 engine is from a 1988 Ford Mustang), they harden and start to leak. As the motor is apart and fully accessible outside the vehicle, now is a great time to replace the seal.

As we move along swiftly with project Project Factory Five Cobra, we’ve found another need for customization – steering rack stops for our manual steering rack. In particular, the factory-supplied steering rack has too much travel. By that, we mean the wheels actually turn too much.
