can anyone recommend a mustang shop i can take my '97 cobra to?
I'm in Huntington Beach, CA. something close, since i need to tow.

engine started screeching and car shook violently before i shut it down. not sure what it could be...

The screeching sound can be a result of something like an alternator or power steeringpump bearing or the waterpump also.

Dont know about that, but I know of a really good guy who does performance work on mustangs. Im not sure where his shop is though, I think maybe in the valley somewhere......

it was more of a grinding noise. there was also a metallic clicking noise (like the valves hitting).
i'm thinking a spun bearing or maybe just a shifted timing chain.
the car shook and lost power.
