Coming soon, Twin Paxton 527C.I. SOHC

[Keithc8]

Number one we are building what the customer requested and he is paying the bills. David and Tom have already made the blower brackets, pulleys and the dry sump set drive system. This not a concept but an engine that is about 2 weeks from being assembled. We have been working on this package for about 6 months now getting it all worked out.
David and Tom are doing the car and the blowers have already been mocked up on another SOHC build. All parts are at the shop and done. Just have to assemble and dyno test. The Paxtons were chosen by the custom because that was what was used on the Cobra back in the day. It will have the same hats as well as hoses to carburetors like the original.
If we have a customer wanting a twin turbo for his Cobra and he is paying the bills that is what he will get. We are also going to be doing a couple of the original style FE all aluminum side oiler engines with the Paxtons for a couple of CSX Cobras that a customer is putting together.
I hope to get some of the pictures up soon. Will probably do a photo bucket set for them. I am sure that the assembly will take a little while as I am sure we will run into a few things we have to modify or make. We will keep you posted.

Thanks, Keith

Actually, if you're talking about the Cosby Cobra, it used an Edelbrock crossram, if you're trying to be 'original', though I don't think Edelbrock ever made a crossram for the cammer. Mickey Thompson might have.
