David, Feb is a "good" time to visit Buzz. Don't wait 'till July:JEKYLHYDE.
|
Looks like I'll have to come to you to see the cars. I was actually thinking about hopping across and visiting you guys to see some of the cars and projects in the flesh when I fly up to Las Vegas for the Cobra/Ferrari smackdown, but time just won't allow on this trip.
Blitz's car will be the first Kirkham I get to see up close and personal and you can bet I'll photograph it from every possible angle for base material to use in future Cobra art projects!:) |
Cammer Build Update... The engine is going together well. Here are some pictures. Thanks Keith......

VERY nice!

Revised Fliptop rendering. The cowl scoops are moved to the cowl (duh:3DSMILE:) where they belong, the superfluous fresh air hose is removed and the side exhaust cutout now exits through a hole in the body. Along with a few other subtle detail changes that will only matter on the large poster print.

Yes, much better Buzz. Looked like crap before.
|
Buzz,
Beautiful poster ... complements the whole project very nicely :) Between the car and the motor, this is one heck of a cool project, looking forward to seeing it all come together! - Tim |
Engine update: Keith is almost finished with the build. A couple small detail parts needed. We are going to use the FAST XFI EFI system for the hilbourn injection. I'm adding traction control to this build. The engine should dyno and ship in two weeks. This is a fun project and welcome comments. Darren
|
So...think you'll have it on the road for Sonoma (Wine Country Cobra Classic) in May?
|
I need about 100 hours to do the wiring, interior and work out the bugs. "Sonoma" would be a great shake down drive. I hope David can finish his side of the project in the next 4-5 weeks. Per Keith, the cammer will be done in two weeks delivered in three. The only concern I have is the stack system install and the traction control. I might be optimistic with the 100 hours, but will have a couple of buddies on stand-by. Darren
|
Darren, is your car going to have the exhaust just poking out the side as in the poster? That looks like the ideal setup for those early Sunday morning starts in the neighborhood. :D
|
If I may answer for Darren, the Fliptop will have a full rear exit undercar exhaust system with the cockpit operated side exit cutouts for when he feels like raising a lil' hell.
|
Update: Keith Craft is finishing up the Cammer and will be dyno'd next week. It should ship in 2 weeks. With mild cams, we're looking at about 700hp.
|
Here are few Cammer pictures.... Almost done :):)

Wow, that cammer is sweet.
You sure those stacks are tall enough though?? :eek: |
The stacks will be cut to length when that length is determined. We have some shorter ones but they did not look as nice as these. They may be a option to be chromed or powder coated but like I said may just have these cut to length needed.
Thanks, Keith |
I love tall stacks, I just couldn't quite imagine how those were going to fit under the hood.
