New build =)
Well after 5 year of working overtime and buy parts for my ac kit. I just started to put my cobra together. I found a 1967 428 police interceptor motor and had http://www.pro-formancespecialties.com/ build dyno and tune it. Matt shaft did a great job and knows the fe tricks..

Sounds nice, a little like my 428. Would like to stop by sometime and take a look at your project being that you are local. PM me with some contact information. I am in Rochester at least once a week.

It's looking nice. Yes, it is not as easy as some people think to put a car together and still continue with the rest of our lives. I have a busy summer ahead, but should be able to fit in a day or two to help you if you want. Let me know.
Jim |
Thanks guys for the positive words. I hope this summer I get to make some good progress.
