Well, starting on the newest project as the Coupe thing is beginning to make it's way toward the finish. Car is a 1994 Cobra I picked up off of Taylorkdt, 81k miles, Rio Red, 5-speed. Right now all it has is a set of 3.73s cause I couldn't stand how slow it was, and some '98 Cobra wheels. That's it! Am currently in the process of putting a full exhaust, bigger MAF, removing the factory oil cooler and removing the smog equipment.

Plans are for a big brake/big tire/big power overall street performer. I'll already have a drag oriented car in the Coupe, I want this one to actually be able to turn a corner. Maybe not be as straightline fast or as rowdy as the Coupe, but still be fun throwing it through the mountains of Cloudcroft or Ruidoso. What do ya'll think? Turbo? Big inch N/A? F1 Procharger? :pimp:

I think the majority of the people on this board will vote turbo. Right now in my head I have something like a 427 smallblock with an F1A or YSi Vortech. Easy, right-now power.

And yes Jed, definitely a manual.

I love the 94-95 cobras, i vote big motor and blower... no turbo
+1, Get a big cube motor in there with the f1, that would be a helluvacar.

The sound of a big motor rumble with the slight hint of a centrifugal whistle..is just bad ass.

Good lookin' car, Omar. Shouldn't have sold mine! Definitely force the air into it somehow. What about a big twin screw?
Not so much into the roots/screw blowers really, especially not on pushrod motors.
