Chevy turbo in a Cobra. Good or anus?

Very nice work!

What turbo are you running? How much boost pressure?

In the end, they are all replicas so what's the difference, enjoy your car, do your own thing...its your money, your car, your life...just keep the rubber side down.

Different strokes for different folks. I enjoy seeing something different.

If you go to enough car shows in my area, you notice a high percentage of cars have a small block chevy in them. So much so, that after a while you mentally knock off points for a lack of originality. It seem's like anyone can stick a SB cheby in anything, and they do it all the time. With that said, I still wouldn't want to insult anyone. I've seen some nice cars with a SB cheby. They just don't belong in everything.

In areas of the world where Ford engines are hard to come by, by all means do what you have to.

Bob Bodurant (SP?) sure did love driving the turbo V-6 Buick engine with auto tranny (in a Cobra) at the London car show last summer. I guess some people can appreciate a great mut, and others think it must have a pure documented blood line.

You know Boostedsnake a lot of us probably don't impress them.If it makes them feel better looking down their noses at those of us less fortunate,that's a good thing.It's a good thing there are people like us not afraid to step out of the box and do what needs to be done. The FE tribe try and give us 385 guys greef.So how does your toy go? I'm sure there other enthusiasts that would be interested in hearing about your setup.
