No Turbo but Scotty did some nice work to my lexus with 8Tbs' in cobra 1 revision 2. Then I polished it to within an inch of its life. Looked good sounded awesome.....

Sadly the judges hated it a Nats 2007 and I couldn't get a sniff at a trophy for engine bay for love nor money. Sore point sore point sore point. Did I mention sore point LOL!



Whatever way you go enjoy it. I couldn't go Chebie and would run the Coyote despite all performance common sense roads leading me back towards the bowtie powerplant.

Always loved your old Harrison and the 8TB setup Spook. I reckon you took a good car and made it great.
