Default Cobra walk around video

Cobra is 98% done just a few things left before NYS inspection and warm weather. Here is a video running in the drive way.

Nice job with the build. It will soon be warm enough to take it out for a spin. Good luck with the inspection. Where are you located?

Thank you. I live in Clifton Park, NY just a little north of Albany. I've never had good luck with the DMV for anything over the years, I am hoping any inspection issues don't cause me to miss any warm weather.

The motor sounds great, what is the estimate on horsepower? I just took another look at the video, and coming fresh off of a project in which I installed a heater/defroster in my car, I did not see any defroster vents on your dashboard. Did I miss them? NY will require defrosters to pass inspection. They normally do not check them during the regular safety inspection, but because it is a new build I believe that they are going to see them during the initial inspection.

Check with others to verify. There are quite a few cobra owners in your area and they will know more specifics about what the inspectors in your area are looking for. Good luck.

Correct I have no heater/defroster. I have heard that the inspectors don't care as long as you get past the paperwork/pictures part, but as a back up I will use a marine 12v electric defroster temporarily wired in.

As far as horsepower I'm hoping for around 500 not sure if I am there or not. This is my first FE build. Much more familiar with Ford small blocks.
