Hi Gary:
Yes, I do believe that ERA had them done for the original owner, along with the headers. The intake manifold was sent out by the owner prior to build.

Gary, I have seen some real nice HPC coatings being done on sway bars and all control arm suspension pieces at ERA for some customers. These were done in SILVER chome on the GT40's they were building. Wow, they look real sharp.

If I had it to do from start, that is the way to go, or one way. This coating was done by HPC company. They do a real nice job. They have opended up brances outside of Conn now and are coast to coast so to speak.

You couls ask Bob to take a snap of the GT40 suspension and email it to you. Perhaps next week If I get there I can do that for you if they do not mind. Nice Nice look.

I bet you are chomping at the bit to get that Cobra going eh? Have you decided on a trannie yet and a rear end ratio?

I will be having my rear end gears changed this winter to either 3.11 or 3.54. They are 4.11 right now which is too tall. I push high RPM on the turnpike without an overdrive gear.

Cheers Gar!
