Dumpling- "what I'd be more interested in is some kind of intake, something along the lines of a DCOE crossram or center-front opening plenum style (obviously fuel injected) that might possibly fit under a stock hood, or at least under a hood without needing the horrendous-looking domed hood blister that Shelby needed.
that project would add something new to the world of FE's and Cobras: a modern injection, low-profile blower manifold."

You've red my mind, you're very talented.
The company is Paxton/Vortech. We spoke about developing a smaller hat, brackets & accessories to fit under our hoods without the big fat hood scoop.
We can all discuss it in detail now, adding our thoughts of what we need and want for our cobras, to update & bring the power & technology to todays cobra. Then I'll report the ideas to them.
I pitched my idea to a magazine about updating Shelby's/Ford's original 1966 427 Super Snake, and showed real interest, if we can come up low profile & modern system.
One idea was like what Dumpling has mentioned, including either a carb or what I prefer, is updating to fuel injection.
Question's- does anyone know how tall the original system is from the engines deck to the top of the hat ? Paradise Wheels supercharger
Since a lot of todays cobras have about the same hood scoop, we'll also need to know the average measurement from the top of the hat to the bottom scoop, so most cars can utilize the system without changing the scoop.
DO WE HAVE ENOUGH ROOM FOR THE GEAR DRIVE ? (steering rack ect.)
