Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I am just coming out of my food coma now...
Here’s a couple of my favorite shots of my car because they really show the curves!

It took 15 months and a whole lot of work to get this 502 cid (460 block with a stroker crank) in the car, troubleshot, and tweaked. I've always been a Chevy small block V8 enthusiast. Transitioning to a Ford engine presented its challenges. I was haunted with oil leaks, fuel leaks, coolant leaks, cooling capacity problems, flex plate and starter alignment problems, alternator problems, ignition timing problems. Just par for the course for an engine swap, I guess, but this one was especially painful. My old Camaros were much easier and cheaper to work with. But that's history. My Cobra is finally a dependable car that'll take me wherever I need to go without fear of breaking down. ATK Performance Engines advertised this engine at 515 hp and 585 ft-lb torque. The spec sheet that came with the engine showed 530 hp and 570 ft-lbs. Close enough. Okay, so no one ever promised me that building/maintaining a Cobra was going to be easy. I get that.

Latest pic of the Tangerine Beast with it hunkered down, with Hoosiers on it and with the new roll bar. I am not done with the bar yet. I will be adding a brace which goes from the middle of the bar down to the tub just behind the dash.
