with the covers being stamped and so easy to get out of shape I can't imagine that clearancing them for rockers would help much. I also wondered about the breather.
*Because* they're stamped steel, a ball-peen hammer was an effective "clearancing tool," but only for small adjustments.with the covers being stamped and so easy to get out of shape I can't imagine that clearancing them for rockers would help much. I also wondered about the breather.
95GTS,
Small world! I’m in Cali also(near Camarillo), I’m having the same engine work being done(by L&R Engines in Santa Fe Springs via Full Throttle Kustomz in Fillmore) and with the same Cali restrictions! ‘95 Cobra, 91k, original 4.0 block
I know on my TF170s they raise the valve cover mounting surface a bit to help. Ford ran 1.7s under the 94/95 covers just fine in the Cobra, so with the right rockers it works.1.7...I would imagine they modified the valve covers to clear those
Update: They had her on the dyno today, and I was told the numbers over the phone (276 whp 315 tq). Kinda wanted to break the 300 whp mark but oh well.
No they aren’t. The 94/95 Cobra covers are identical to the GT covers except for the Cobra names stamped on them.Remember, though, that the stock Cobra covers are different from the GT ones for that reason.
