Hi, the QA1's are lightyears ahead of whatever garbage shocks came with my cobra kit originally. You should have seen in weaving and bobbing all over the place on the track and the autocross. But I agree, QA1 is an entry level shock. I was going to do Penske originally, but I wasnt sure how much benefit I'd actually get.

I was getting some blow by on the passenge side and pulled out the PCV valve. Good tip on the valve cover, i will try that! Or maybe it wont matter too much as I am going to be ordering the stuff for a 4 or 5 stage dry sump here in the next few days. Since I have everything apart now (i.e. spun rod bearing) I am going to make more upgrades. I still want to track it! But I have another car in the works that will help offset some time from the cobra so I am not beating it up too much.

I'd like to try slicks! I kind of like the idea of keeping the same set of street/track tires, but I may get some 17 inch or 18 inch rims and some hoosiers.

After driving that Spec Racer Ford, I am now convinced that horsepower is NOT the only game on the track. I'd like to build another cobra and put a high compression 4-cylinder in it :>
