quiksilver im gonna try to get by with using the stock hood i dont see why i wont be able to since im using my stock intake its just wider now. ill probably have to pull the lining off the hood but thats not bad. i really would like to keep my stock hood as its part of what makes a cobra a cobra but if it doesnt clear im gonna go with a 4" cobra r. hows your swap coming btw? ill have my heads back in the morning then its almost complete. i ran into a problem tonight my oil pickup tube is too big for the oil pump that came on my shortblock and dont want to reuse my high volume pump off the cobra bc its got 190,000 on it lol.
i have a big problem tho well two actually. my belt tensioner doesnt fit on the new timing cover and i dont have all the pulleys that the timing cover has bosses for and the other problem is timing the engine. which way do i put the marks on the cams and which way does the crank mark face? and how do i know if im on a compression stroke since im building from scratch? any help would be greatly appreciated cus im close to dropping it in
