Cobra Pictures

[Silverback]

Sweet my hairy friend.....SWEEEEET.:rock:

As I stated earlier. What a great picture our two cars would make together.

 

[Silverback]

Simply badass. :drool:

Very nice John. Congratulations on owning a trademark of motorsports history, as well as, you dream car.

Thank you as well.:rock:

Screw the pictures, we want sound clips.

And remember when parking - the parking brake on Superformance cars is absolutely useless - leave her in gear!

You are right about the parking brake. I pushed it out of the garage with it on.

 

[Silverback]

I've always been curious how the shifter "works". . . Meaning, what direction does it move to engage the gears? It's always appeared (to me) to move in a vertical-like motion. . .

It does move a little in the vertical direction, but for the most part it's like a normal shifter with fore/aft motion.

 

[Silverback]

Nice pic's. How does it drive?:dontknow:

To be truefull, I'm not sure that I will ever find the limits of the handling of the car. At least on the street, and I like to push things in the corners.

On the way home today I was generally at twice the posted limit on the corner speeds, and it had a lot more left.

F###ING SWEEEEEEET....:rock: :rock: :rock:

Very happy for you my hairy friend....:elefant: :elefant:

Stefan...:coffee:

Thanks Stefan.

very nice Silver , very nice ! :rock: But it's not serious ,you have 2 Holleys to play with.... i have only 1 on the vette.... ( a 600 )

I removed all cold start devices from it , even saw the tower off with the butterfly... Don't need it , just a 2-3 pumping on the pedal and Vroem....ok , de first 30 sec's i have to play a little with pedal to keep it around 1000 rev's ....

First time i got the carb completely open the gaskets behind the metering plates were glued ....so broken and had to remove them in pieces, sand paper the faces....at the shop there seemed to be different ones , other holes patern...so i had to surch a bit which ones were to be used....

Also renewed the safety valve ( to protect vac valve from backfire ) , oeps , never have seen so tiny one-way valves
Also in those vac valves you have different numbers ( at which vac they work ) ....i tryed some ( and jets ) to find a responsive engine....:burnout:

A great profit is you can install fuel height in the bowls with running engine with the sight holes !

But i think you know that all.....

Just info John : i have seen here sets of fuel lines at the shops with very poor quality pressure meters....which i don't understand : one go's with braided steel lines for safety and fire protection and at the same time they place a very fragile pressure meter on it.... :dontknow:
myself would plug that and connect meter only for tuning....:rock:
Don't know ofcourse which one you have from a pic....

Damned nice car John, must be great to work on and drive around to local pub .....:rock: :rock: :rock:

Why have only one 4 barrel when you can have two?:dontknow:

No chokes on this one either. No room under the hood for them so you have to keep blipping the throttle to keep it running when you first start it.

That's okay, I can live with it.

 

[Silverback]

VERY cool, Dad!!!! :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock:

I can only WISH for as steering wheel like that for the 'Vette.

Thanks son. :rock:

 

[Silverback]

Thanks Tim.:rock:

And you're right. I do deserve it.

 

[Silverback]

Awesome John :rock: :rock: :rockics were worth the wait....and it looks like you had some great weather that day...time for a spin:driver: Congrat's and thanks for sharing.

Thanks Ken.

I really enjoy this car more than I did all the motorcycles I have owned.

 

[Silverback]

Wait until you see the big fatties that will be going under it next year.

 

[Silverback]

Thanks for the pics John. You know I am a diehard Mopar Man but that is a VERY nice ride. Congrats on your dream car!

Thank you for your comments. From a diehard MOPAR man:rock: , I know it's really special.

 

[Silverback]

That thing is gorgeous, John. Congratulations!!!

Thanks Steve.:rock:

 

[Silverback]

TO KOOL! need some video of you (idleing and burnouts!)

The problem is I'm video challanged. And even if I got a video of it, I don't know how to download it.

As my buddy SVTFreak would say, I shouldn't own a computer.

 

[Silverback]

Yeah I'd love to hear how loud that thing is at WOT.


Definitley BadAss!!!:rock: Beautiful Car! Wish I could see it in person.:dontknow:

It's so loud you should be able to hear it where you are at.

 

[Silverback]

I guess its OK if your into that kind of thing

Looks awesome man, good luck with her.
Is it all you had hoped for?:rock:

Thank you, and it is all that I hoped it would be, and more.:elefant:

 

[Silverback]

John....I love it..:rock: :rock: :rock:

You ROCK my friend!!!!

Thanks Walt.

I'm really looking forward to seeing your beast when you get it.

I hope and pray that this time you are not disappointed, and f*cked over.

 

[Silverback]

Very nice pics John, EXCEPT where is the burnout pic?

Bill.

Haven't got a picture of that yet. Not really sure it will spin the tires.

 

[Silverback]

You have gone from pure brute American horsepower to incredibly pure brute American horsepower to the power of four!

John, does it have a catch can...I see a line running off one of the breathers...?

Yep, more power and half the weight. What more could I hope for.

Nope, that line goes to the PVC valve.

And not to sound like an ass, but it sounds like a bad ass V8.

 

[Silverback]

I thought it looked familiar

It's missing the stripes. :rock:
