I drive my cobra on the street, mostly. I am running maybe 300 HP max, and I normally dont get the revs past 4500 RPM. I drive it quite a bit, about 3,000 miles a year. I have a Holley Blue electric pump, it's kind of noisy and I have had some fuel pressure fluctuation (I have a holley regulator before the pressure gauge). I was shopping around for a new motor and I noticed most of the pics of 351's I see have mechanical fuel pumps.

I also noticed that my oil temp sensor was connected to the plate where the fuel pump would normally be and I was wondering if this was normal.

Thanks!
