Hi Phil,
hope you enjoyed the pics of my engine.
I'll send the pics of the completed Cobra. Just got to take the engine and gearbox out again to rectify a problem with the Torque Plate.
As the Chevy engine and gearbox ( TH400 ) are in a place were they were not designed to be, then I have had to remake the whole dash-board and add extra instruments - mainly for the TH400, which, as it has a Transbrake installed for drag racing, I have had to fit temperature and pressure gauges.
As my little love started complaning about her ( passenger ) side, being too noisey and too much aluminium showing, I have had to add some pinky red sound proofing - looks like a 'tarts boudoir' now. On top of me buying her a full race harness too - Women!!!! Just waiting for all the ribbing from my mates and all the other racers.
Hope you had a good Christmas and all the best for the New Year.
Cheers,
Paul Greenhalgh.

Will be awaiting pics of the finished car! Very nice ride. Never seen a blown SBC in a Cobra!!

9.5 in the 1/4 sounds great! Will surely be a handful on the street.

Very nice power to weight ratio.
