Want to keep it looking stock looking under the hood thats why the stock cobra stuff. Want to get High 10s out of the build. Would love more but would be happy with that. Am not going to turn more than 6,800 rpm on the car max. Thinking more like 6,300 rpm's.

Thought I would post my engine build (Fordstroker built)

I'm hoping for 500HP NA but I built this motor for 1,200hp+.

RPM 4340 crank, Scat 4340 H Beam Rods, 2618 Forged Wiseco Pistons, Wiseco's GFX ring. Motor is good for 9k rpms if I used solid lifters (I'm not) was told 7,500 with hydraulic lifters.

3/8 pushrods 4130 Chromemoly
Jesel shaft rockers (They only make one for the 11r heads) (KPS-470191)
Moroso Oil Pan with billet end seals
Melling Standard Volume Oil Pump (10687)(I didn't want a high volume pump)
Moroso Oil Pump Pick up (24516)
ARP Billet Oil Pumpshaft
New timing cover
Edelbrock Water Pump (8840) (He is going to cut the tip down to 3/8 to help fit me electric fan)
All ARP bolts (All of them I know its a little extreme) LMR make a kit for the timing and water pump
All Fel Pro gaskets

I have no problem with you posting if you think I should do something different or ideas on my build. Its just a toy and I want to have fun with it.

So few things I'm looking at.
I was debating to way to get the most air N/A and still look super clean so my thought is keep the cold air intake or go back stock box.
So the stock box has a outlet of 3 1/4in with the inlet being the complete fender hole. Plan on going with a 85mm mass air 3.34in inlet not sure outlet yet but the stock elbow is 3in. 75mm TB will be 2.95in
If I keep my cold air intake it is 3in in and out.
My plan is to go back stock but I will test both on a dyno.

I will also test the stock 65mm and a 75mm

One thing I'm still up in the air about is my compression (what to run 93 octain) Thinking 10:5 maybe 10:3 something like that.

What to add as big of a kit that I can add without opening my rings up to much. Plan on asking Woody but haven't yet.

My plan is to use the normal air box when daily driving but when I go to tune on WOT I will just come straight off the TB.

Ok, So I plan on putting new Carpet, Floor mats in the cobra. Also will rewire my nitrous and 2 step. Have it below the radio right now but plan on moving it to the ash tray spot. (see pic)

Got my Baseline Street launch upper and lowers in just moving one step closer (Rome wasn't built in a day)

Also will be putting the stock radio in it the clock will work but thats it will be running a bluetooth hidden radio for this. Just giving it the stock look but a sweet radio. Have one in my MG now and love it. (ST4. 1000DB)

Sent my build off to Woody (Fordstrokers)
Dart SHP Block
363ci
RPM parts
Compression 10 to ? To 1 that range. (93 octane)
Trickflow 205 11R heads
Fox Body Package (make oil pan drain for supercharger/Turbo) Just doing this to have.
ARP Rod bolt upgrade (He told me I didn't need but lets just call it piece of mind)
Rings gapped for 300 shot of Nitrous

205 11R are over kill but the way I see it if I ever decide to take that cobra intake off I want say I wish I would have got the 205s.

Guess I'm looking at 4-6 months out but he hasn't told me yet I'm sure its worth the wait.

Was looking at picking up a TKO 600 from a guy. He told me I could shift the transmission in the car so I went to his house car wasn't running he was changing intakes. So I told him just hit me back when it was running. Guy got it running then backed out. After 2 months of talking and one trip to his house 60 miles away.

I was really looking at an A5 so I guess that will be my plan again.
