Hey man,

Thanks for the compliment!

The blower I am running is an Eaton, stock on an 03-04 Cobra. In order to make this blower fit, you must purchase a TorkTech manifold (http://www.torktech.com), along with some bracketry etc.

So, this might be a little different than what you are talking about. KB does make a 2V blower kit, but I am not very familiar with them.

With the manifold I am running, any blower designed for a 03-04 Cobra can bolt on. My secret plan down the road is to put the 3.4 whipple from the Cobra onto the GT and do twins on the Cobra.

I had to have the bolt holes on the Eaton slotted to fit on the manifold. This was the modification I was talking about. Let me know if you have any questions about your future set up, myself and the others here can definitely point you in some directions (hopefully the right ones lol).

Haha.. not trying to rub it in your face!

Your car is a nicer color IMO.

I'm just chomping at the bits waiting for these parts to come in. What the hell am I going to do for 3 weeks??? ... ...

Thanks guys!

Yeah, law school is a bitch. I try to have as much fun as I can. I am taking these two days OFF so I can really get some wrenching time in!

Rest of the pics as usual at http://www.foofinator.com/updates


Tomorrow, hopefully I'll have the old shit out. I need to drain the fluids, pull the old manifold, then swap the timing cover over and buy a new single bolt tensioner. After that, I think I can set it on top of the motor.

Then I will have to outline for my classes Monday through Friday. That's ok, because I'm out of cash to buy the last odds and ends haha. I still need TPS/IAC/IC pump/gaskets/HE mounts..

Let me know if anyone here wants a deal on a nice JLT, a bbk throttle body, or the PI manifold.

Thank you gents!

I just realized that many may not be able to see the pictures, especially if they are at work, because I run my site on Port 85. Some places block this port.

If you can't see pics in my posts, this is why. Here are some hosted on Photobucket just incase!
