I installed a new GM in my cobra. It was a PITA; the motor will hit the pipes; had to relocate and replumb the whole thing. The good parts is the brakes work great; low pedal pressure and can lock them up easily. The bad part is the motor had to be located on the tranie tunnel over the top on the trannie; the MC must be above the motor so the fluid can flow down hill to the pump. If I have a problem with the elec. motor I;ll hve to remove engine to get to it. If I had to do it again; I'd go vaccum. All the SPF are using vac and many have hi-power low vac motors and they are working OK. Just might take a few revs to get some vac stored up
