mgrissom Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 We drove about 24 hours straight to the outskirts of Orlando and back to pick this 96 Cobra up. I only have one picture that I got on the trip so far, but I'll try and grab some better ones sometime today. http://i41.tinypic.com/2wgr8d0.jpg http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/5018/hpim3614.jpg Vortech S Trim superchargerSean Hyland forged aluminum shortblock- Forged Steel Cobra Crankshaft- Manley H Beam Connecting Rods- Manley Forged Pistons- HD Molybdenum Steel Piston Rings- ARP Main Bolts- FM Race Main and Rod BearingsVortech Aftercooler (pretty much an air/water intercooler from what I'm gathering)FMS Cobra R wheelsCenterforce clutch73 mm Mass air36 lb injectorsFMS shorty headerBassani catted X pipeTuned by Atlanta Chassis DynoKoni yellow shocks in backSteeda sport springsSteeda caster camber platesPro 5.0 shifter It makes 460rwhp with the stock blower pulley (somewhere between 6 and 8 psi). My plans so far are heads/cams, blower pulley, and I'm going rethink the exhaust to free up some power since I don't have to worry about emissions.

mgrissom Posted March 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Thanks guys. Yeah, it's fun to drive. Made it 13 hours from Orlando-area to Tenn/Alabama state line, has cruise control and heat/air so I was happy with that. Opened it up in third at 60 and it got sideways a bit on the 285s, haven't gotten on it besides that really because I'm kinda afraid to until I get some bigger tires. Completely different powerband than I'm used to with the turbo'd Starions so I'll have to adjust to that as well. The entire way back I was thinking how awesome this drivetrain would be swapped in a Starion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
