Sean, you are so right in getting a reliable Cobra rather than too high of a performance car! Too much compression and you hunt for high Octane gas forever!
We are S & S Automotive on Iliff Ave in Denver. We maintain many of Mile High Cobra Club members cars. We are a distributor and builder of Unique Motorcars' Cobras.

We like using new Ford 302 crate motors. Its plenty of motor for a 2400 lb car and with the lighter motor it gives you a 50/50 weight ratio so handling is like a slotcar for Colorado Highways. Further more, using new parts instead of donor car parts there are less headaches chasing down a failed part.
We supplied a Unique brand Cobra rolling chassis to "Dr Dan" in Black Forest, Colorado. With a little help from us he built his own car and to his 302 he added a great looking Fuel Injection system by Grand Lake, Colorado based Momar Fuel Injection systems (
www.momarefi.com) It looks like Quad Webers, but is tuned with a laptop! And of course with our roads from 5,000 to 14,000 Mount Evans performance is never compromised.
Our greatest asset is Carl Wade. Carl has been building Cobras and GT40's for over 20 years. He was the key builder for Hardey Motors of California in the 70's and 80's.
Carl has been working with Dave Cimbura of Momar Injection directly and knows better than anyone about this new EFI system built by Momar!
With that said we have the "Superman of Cobra builders"...injected...or not! And your best Colorado connection for Cobra work!
