So I have been posting a couple pictures of my progress in the wheel, but I am in need of advice now so hopefully one of you experts can point me in the right direction. I have owned this coupe for 14 years, its had 5 motors in and out since then. It was sitting for the last 8 years after I sold the Dart based 331 and YSI blower back then I was able to sell the motor and buy my 1993 cobra.
Since I have been down the build something and buy everything route, and then sell it for a 1/4 of the value. I went out and purchased someone's money pit, a 1989 hatch with everything major needed. So I swapped most of the suspension and running gear, with lots of cleaning and painting in between. Here were the details.
392W Ford Motorsport S/B
Z- heads
Trickflow upper (going away)
TKO600
5 Lug - Tubular K memeber with 1/2" spacer and solid lowering engine mounts
My main goal's for this build are to have a STOCK hood at all costs and A/C with a clean back to Stock appearance especially in the interior. I have removed 7 Guages from there, what was I doing??? This is what I have done so far, cleaned interior and put new stereo and speakers with sub, swapped the suspension, put a 95 booster and MC in, long block is in with trans, working on Fan setup with new radiator, going to use my FAST system (its old but better then running a MAF) Which leaves me open for Throttle body options where my confusion is at right now.
So now I am stuck on the upper intake(lower Spyder EFI carb style), Should I run an elbow and a normal Throttle body, or should I try one of these Carb Style EFI throttle boiddies. They are expensive but in the end going to be about the same price, my main concern is hood clearance. I would have to have someone fabricate me a Hat and connection to the AFM cold air pipe but I might get more clearance, seems like a lot of work but maybe an option might look cleaner.
