Cobra
It's a DAX Cobra built in 2013 (not by me) using a 1990 Jaguuar XJ40 donor (although that probably accounts for about 5% of the car!!). DAX de dion suspension with coilovers all round keep it pretty well planted round the bends...not usually a Cobra strongpoint :nod:
Powered by a small block 350 chevy stroked out to 383.
Moderate road cam that's more about torque than BHP (BHP sells cars - Torque wins races....Carrol Shelby)
Holley 670 Street Avenger, Mallory electronic dizzy + Streetfire ignition.
Tremec 5speed manual box. Also contains poncy stuff like power brakes, powersteering and a heater :shocked:
Also fitted a PCV system last yearto save the planet.....picture here + plus lots of other automotive eye candy
Customer’s Rides – M/E Wagner Performance Product
Dyno'd last year with mildly disappointing results (aren't they always?)
306.5 BHP at 4650rpm
418 ft lb at 2400-2800 rpm
Since then I've changed the exhaust inner pipes from 2" to 3", doubling the throughput, changed the airfilter to a more freeflowing one and tweaked the mixture - back to the Dyno soon for more disappointment maybe
MOT due next week following a winter of SORN and she''ll be back on the road 1st April Hurray!!
