The tank looks fine but without additional info from the manufacturer or other Cobra owners I'd be concerned about adequate hood clearance.

As is, it looks like it is stock height. That would be too high for my car.

Kirkham also sells a nice one for a "bit" more money, as I recall.

I have a few completed brass tanks in stock, as well as a few not put together yet.
Also have stainless tubes that go between the radiator and engine.
