Default New Man Garage photos

I couldnt resist passing on the pics of my addition to the man garage - The cobra banner and the lighted Cobra sign I picked up at Barrett Jackson this year. Totally useless stuff but cool!

Thanks for asking. It is better but not perfect. I have put about 500 miles since I got it back from Roush and continue to have an intermittent hesitation under throttle around 3000 rpm but not all the time. Aside from the motor, we have determined the fuel pickup is in a bad spot (high and the left) therefore starving it for fuel when going around sharp turns. Also the fuel gauge stopped working so we will be dropping the tank to (hopefully) fix both at the same time.

I like the Cobra garage, the perfect man cave. Your car must feel right at home. Good luck with the changes you're making.

Default Roush was supposed to have fixed all the bugs

Ron, when I spoke to Todd at Roush/Superformance he assured me all the bugs had been worked out of the earlier designs and all engines would be fine from now on, I was happy with this, but now I have read your comments I am concerned. Is this current intermittent issue due to the location of the fuel pick-up, or is it directly attributabe to the engine? tin-man

No this time I think it is due to the fuel pickup, not the engine. I sent you a PM
