Default buy a kit, or make it - takes longer

I believe Southernautomotiveengines.com and cobraaccessories.com (Enzo and Paula) sells the kits for FE's if you want the easy route, but it's not cheap like home made. As Mr. Fixit says, you can make your own too. I've seen guys use slaves from Toyotas, even Forklift master/slaves for that matter on a few of the older Butler cars. The trick is getting it all (geometry) to work together seamlessly if you try to make it yourself. Some of the kits work pretty well. Most of the Cobra replica MFG's will sell you pieces too, depending on what car you have, and what mounting provisions you have, etc...
