Sorry I haven't been around in quite a while. Lots of things have happened and changed in my life, mostly for the better. I ended up selling the Cobra after a guy made me a pretty good offer on it. It was definitely fun while I had it and had zero issues after the supercharger install. Definitely would have needed a stronger tranny with that kind of power at the rear tires, though.
Right now I am finishing up putting an LS2 into my 68 Chevelle. This car is pretty much brand new from front to back. I rewired the entire car with an updated kit that included modern fuses and upgraded wiring. It was setup to integrate a fuel injection system right into it, so it worked out very well. Monday night was the first time I was able to fire the car up and it started on the very first turn of the key. I was pretty nervous and kept second guessing myself, but I really took my time with everything and it worked out perfectly.
This engine should be making around 430 hp/440 tq at the flywheel in stock form with my custom tuning. Then this winter I will upgrade the cam/springs/pushrods, and possibly change out the heads and be at an easy 500 hp. There is actually so much room in the engine bay with that old SBC out of the way I was considering a turbo...haha. Probably don't need to go that far but it would make around 600 whp without a problem.
I am glad to see that most of you guys are still around and still enjoying your cars. Someday I would like to pick up another Mustang, but for now I am really into the classic muscle cars. The next project I have in mind is installing a Trailblazer SS AWD drivetrain into a 67 to 68 shortbed C10. I haven't seen one of those done yet and I think it would be awesome to be the first to build one.
