Old Meets New!! #148-#573
This is an addendum to Fred's thread "ERA 573 final assemble in progress"
Fred had his cobra dropped off here at Metal-morphous inc. to get few small paint repairs done and while it was here its was polished out. I also freshen up the morphed hood and sidepipes. Now thats it finished I thought it interesting to see the differences between ERA 148 and ERA 573. The changes are very nice but the big difference is the engine:MECOOL: Fred asked me to take it out for a drive to see if there was any big differances between the two and I found one that stands out,, ERA 573 is a beast!!! it scares you but in a good way :eek: The first thing you find very nice is that it starts in 5 seconds with out touching the gas pedal, it fires up and run smooth. Then you add a little fuel and WOW does this thing come alive!! the response is instant and the power,, well I figured I was only at 1/4 throttle when I took it out and my 427 is no slouch but I now have a new respect for this technology Enjoy the picture Ron http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../MVC-014S6.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../MVC-017S6.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../MVC-016S3.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../MVC-019S5.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../MVC-018S5.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../MVC-015S2.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../MVC-020S5.JPG |
