Hi guys, finally singed up here.

I've had a 95 cobra project for about three years now. Plan is/was to make a fast daily/summer car with some strip time.

Current setup:

Dart SHP block with a forged big bore 347 rotating assembly - 4.125" piston on a 3.25" stroke crank - would have done a 363 but the crank came to me with the block so I built around it.

AFR185 heads, FTI cam, Trick Flow R intake, 75mm fox TB, 1 5/8" longtubes with full 2.5" exhaust.

T56 Magnum trans, single disc clutch. 3.73 rear gear, with 31 spline LSD and axles.

Stock front suspension, rear is stock location with single adjustable shocks and MM adjustable height lower arms.

Best run so far was a 12.02 @ 114 in good DA at New England Dragway. Trying to get an 11.99 out of it before the local track closes end of Oct.

Plans this winter are to start working on a turbo kit, which will need a lot of changes too follow - fuel system, cage, etc etc.

Here she is on street tires, testing out my homemade trailer:

Dood...the car is great but that trailer is KING!! Great work!!
thanks!

Forgot to list an important piece of the car.

I'm running Megasquirt 3x, fully sequential injectors an ignition coils with 64bit's crank trigger setup. Still getting the car dialed in, track time and datalogs have helped a lot.

South shore, not far from the Riv. I did run an 11.9 finally back in October. I have the car back on jackstands right now, just got a kmember and a bunch of other parts. Was hoping to be back out by now but I had endless issues with everything going back together. I bent an axle, and I twisted my trans slip yoke which I didn't even know until I was putting it back together.
