Here's normally where I tell you are a goose for not choosing a ford engine, and that I still see good in you young Ben 
But the truth is, she's going to slot in quite nicely into that cobra of yours.
Congrats on the new heart, may she beat strong and hard for you for many years of happy and safe motoring!
Now off to Yoda I march, this blue oval Jedi needs extra penance for suggesting such a thought! |

Well, blue oval masters, and crusader nights, each have their own sound. I think that I prefer the old style look. For me, 4 barrel Carbs are easier to look after. Its a wee bit of a pain to set up the two fours. But, the main hassel is that Ford Parts are more expensive to Hot Rod. You get what you pay for. I am also not fond of all the computers you require for EFI management. Too many extra wires, fuel rails, a return line needed, plus the additional need of electric (un-reliable) fuel pumps.
Ride on "Crusader Night!" May the force keep you safe. That and Lady Luck!

Hi Gregg, no accessories yet, going through the motions and reading (a lot!) about the different drive belt lines, PS pumps and alternator setups available....
