What are those? James do you think you can drink out of a mug like that...going to be hard but I guess it will hold 8 bears at once...cause you know it won't run on the mirror in your garage

James, is that a painted car in the background or is it polished metal.
Great finish.
If it is paint, what color? Chrome?
Yes, I left those there by accident, what to send them back to me?

Boy do I have questions for you, Slither...
I have researched many systems (Motec, FAST, Electromotive, etc...) but have not yet made the decision. What are you using? and why do you choose it?
Trularin,
The paint code is Krylon Chrome --- takes about 23 cans

James,
It is a system developed by Lance at Pantera Specialists (949-250-1797). This guy knows what he is talking about. My engine builder, Dave Dralle, has known Lance for years. I told Dave that I wanted to go to fuel injection and Lance is the only guy he would use. Call Lance and talk with him and mention my name, Bill, to him. He'll know. In fact, I have an appointment with him tomorrow afternoon for a computer update. This particular system converts the timing to crank trigger, which is more precise. We ran 613 hp and 597 ft/lbs of torque on the dyno. The engine has been detuned to these numbers because it was so violent. Third gear is hard to describe and it pulls very, very strong in fourth. It's the ultimate induction system!!!
Good luck, James.

James,
I would imagine Jeannie is pretty excited about how well you are doing on getting all the parts together for her Cobra.

James,
That is one sweet looking car! I can't imagine how much elbow grease you have in the finish.
Nice looking induction set up. I have one myself. Good luck with it. We are running the FAST set up. If you need any help or have any questions, please drop me a line or give us a ring.
