my sig is the dream specs of my future cobra w/ a comment displaying my distaste for riceboys...

at the moment i have about $10,000 in the bank...i plan to borrow about $20,000 and to spend around $70,000 all up over a period of about 5yrs or so...

as far as the donk is concerned i want atleast a 7L V8...alloy block preferably...fuel injected would be nice...i have heard that cobras have issues with heat when turbocharged so i will more than likely look into a nice supercharger...i have a fair amount of experience in minis and know that a turboed A-Series 1275 bored out to ~1400 and then stroked out another 100cc can push about 12psi of boost nominally and up to 20psi in short bursts...not sure how much a 7L V8 could take but i would like to get atleast 700hp...

yeah waterworks road is like 100m from my place and it was a real bottleneck for ages...its better now...although some fool will still manage to park up near wogboys or infront of their friends house blocking a lane...
