Absolutely Jim!! I would love to see your car also. I enjoyed watching you prepare your FIA for vintage racing.

Next up, making some noise.
I have the engine in the run stand, just about ready for a test run.
It's been a few years since this one ran on the dyno but has been strored well.
I might try for a video of the start up!

After running the monster on the engine stand and all looking good with that it's time to put it back on the hook and get ready to install into the car.
Set up the clutch etc, removed a few items from the engine to help with clearance while lowering it into the engine bay.

A good friend and fellow cobra owner (HTM101, David) showed up early to spend the day and help with the engine and gearbox install, it was a great help to have an extra pair of eyes and hands to guide the engine and gearbox into place.
All went into place without too much drama, just how we like it!  |
