Was there something wrong with the FI setup or are you just bored?

A little of both 
For several reasons was not real happy with mass-flo although it worked OK. I ended up thinking for as few miles as my weekend SPF gets driven that particular FI just wasn't worth it - too frequent run probs, check engine light, sensor glitches, and to some extent, just couldn't get past the look of it after awhile, all the wiring, computer etc, just not very Cobra-like Saw a member's BBF picture here of a 2x4 Thunder Tiger setup and just knew that was what I wanted to do. I'm sure it will be all kinds of work and tweaking, but at this point IMHO, worth it  I'll put some more pics in my gallery as I go and try to update this for those interested. |

I love my dual 4's. 
And I agree, FI on a Cobra just does not look right unless it looks like the Webers.
What carburators are you going to run?

One thing you may want to consider is having the manifold powder coated. You can get a color that is real close to the cast color and then you won't end up with stains like mine has.
It's on my list of things to do this Winter if I get the time.

If you powder coat it then spill fuel on it when it is hot, it will definately stain. Go "Oh naturale".
You gota love those winter projects!
