Coil covers

[Cobra Drifter]

Ok will definately order from BVM to help support the "Family" :D

I'm hopefully gonna be doing an Eaton SC swap on the Cobra and am looking at the covers with the coil covers in chrome.

That eaton should be n-i-c-e!!

What kind of HP gain will you be looking at?

[Cobra Drifter]

I figure it should give me 50hp at least from it. Stock terminators prodced 390 at the crank. Mine has 320 at the crank. So ~75 from the Eaton but that seems high. Probably some other engine mods or boost from the slight redesign. I'm going to have it ported too so I can get another 30hp out of it.

So I'm 309 at the wheels currently and this should give me ~400 since I will also get retuned (with race gas) and I already have the Basanni exhaust system. About 470 at the crank considering a 18% powertrain transfer loss. All without needing to rebuild the bottom end etc as its a moddest demand on the engine.

Check the Evo thread. I think there were some pictures of his engine in there.

I sent mine off w/ Mastersmech and another friend to some guy in Ohio.

I don't know the number.

Not sure if Mastersmech or Gr8snkbite remembers or not?

I believe I first got the idea from BlueOvalKid.

[blueovalkid]
