Tommy, that stroker set up sounds awesome. I went through a brief fantasy of putting the quad IDA set up on a 427 stroker that I'm currently waiting on. I was unable to swing the added price of the Weber set up, so that will be a future phase of the Cobra ownership. Please keep us posted as to how it works out after you've solved the header heat issue. My backfiring issue was the result of a small piece of the original paper exhaust manifold gasket remaining on the head. Removing it solved the problem. I've seen previous posts from folks who had the same problem you are having with regards to bubbling the paint at the body cut out area. Good luck.
