We all are learning a lot of mechanics with these OLD engines. I ended up doing everything myself, got myself a lift, plenty of tools (the real good, nice and shiny Snap-On) and by now my garage is better outfitted than the mayority of mechanic shops.
Working on the car and engine is fun and challenging

When the Cobra and the 427 run perfect (if ever !!!)and have no problems I'll get bored and will have to pick up a new proyect to keep myself occupied when it rains.
Something allready in my mind, like a Jaguar C-type replica with a 6 cyl DOHC jag engine.
Will see.
In the meantime there are many things to improve on the Cobra, like rpm ratio to speed with my toploader and the 3.54 rear end.

Looks like a Tremec TCO II with overdrive .68 or .82 will have to replace the TL. I don't feel very good keeping 6000rpm for 30 minutes nonstop while doing 120mph on a Spanish Autobahn, and still beeing overtaken by some turbodiesel sedan.
There are some very fast diesels around now, and a Cobra has to be able to keep up with them.
Should I go with a .68 or a .82 TCO II ?
Any suggestions out there ?
