That's right.....and the thickness of their scavenge sections are the reason for that.......a Cobra just doesn't have enough room for the size of their pump .... 4 scavenge sections and a pump section.....also the newer pumps are much more efficient then the older pumps..... On our Cobras ....their is barely enough room in the motor area....at least not in our FE configuration.
