Cobra Jet intake install

I predict you will make 500+whp, as long as your tuner optimizes your cam angles correctly.

That'd be great!

The tune will be the key. Im super anxious to see the dyno curve. If I can do this without losing too much lower end power then I would be sold. Im also following the boss intake install thread.

I'm following the other thread as well lol, I just wish there was a way to fit these under the hood while still using my strut tower brace

Thanks. It's something I'm looking into. A friend of mine with a '14 GT is going with a custom N/A setup with this intake, cams, etc.

Any update on numbers? Been waiting for someone to test out the CJ mani.

This is awesome! Make sure to get some billet OPG's to go along with the higher redline!

I take it Friday to get dyno tuned. Hopefully the molecular makeup of all the components and the fasteners are torqued properly, as a lot can happen at a dyno session that is out of everyone's hands. I have great confidence in the people I've chosen, but I also know the reality, having spent much time on dynos and loosing an engine I built and I was the one running the throttle. Most of you hear cool exhaust when a car is on a dyno...I can't help but think about valve springs, retainers, keepers and so on. I'm not worried about rich or lean as this is something everyone creeps up on. I will post the results as soon as I get them.

What are you planning on spinning it to?

I leave that in the hands of my Tuner and Dyno Operator, I know neither want harm to come, and anything did happen I know it would not be any fault of theirs. I'm not up on these engines that much, whereas the push rod engine I have valve train weights and spring pressures in my experience, they do not transfer to this type of combo. As long as she can make thru Beech Bend, this winter I will be doing cams and valve train upgrades.
