Re: HG's Dream Car Build - Shelby Cobra Kit

Couple more pics. I already told the wife I might run the valve covers through the dishwasher, LOL.

I think I need to get a few more parts. Like a water pump and a few other bits. I'm still debating what intake manifold to use. The 1st gen F150 intake I have is by far the best for power up to up 5500 rpm, which is where the others catch up and then pull ahead. Below that though it's an astonishing gain. I don't intend to race it so the high end power trade off seems like the way to go. The 2018 intake has been the most common upgrade for the older engines. It beats are matches pretty much every other intake available for stock engines, which this is. It's not very expensive either. And a fairly easy swap any time I want.
