It kind of looks home made to me also, but it has a serial number on it. but whether it is or not I realize I'm just going to have to figure this thing out without instructions. I have several questions about the placement of a few things if you guys could help. First question is has anyone put a small block ford with a t5 5 speed transmission, from the crank pulley on the engine to the shifter measures 60 inches, and 60 inches places the shifter too far back between the seats, also if I move the engine that far forward it screws up how the exhaust fill fit. if the engine is in a good spot on the frame, the tailshaft is 4 in from the yoke on the rear end. so basically my questions are can you use a t5 in a cobra and where should I put the motor mounts?
