So my ported cobra jet manifold got shipped from Air Flow Solutions. Pretty quick too, should be getting it tomorrow.

Also ordered today:

- VMP 69mm Twinjet cobra jet throttle body (2018+) directly from VMP Performance
- PMAS Cold Air Intake for Cobra Jet (2018+) from Late Model Restoration (gave me the best deal)
- Steeda adjustable motor mounts (using Stangmode's 10% discount code lol)
- Tune update from Palm Beach Dyno (was only $75)

I have install tentatively scheduled for next week Tuesday. Hopefully the motor mount install won't be a pain in the ass.

Motor mounts are easy, unless you are deathly hungover like I was when I did mine. Honestly an hour tops. Your gonna love the chance, they are awesome

Subscribing and interested in the outcome at the drag strip. I am deciding between staying N/A or going Whipple with my own car and I agree with you the next step is CJ if staying N/A.

If I go with a CJ on my car, I am waiting until Cervini's drops those new hoods they have shown off recently so I can keep my stock motor mounts.

The PMAS on a 15+ CJ is a PITA (lots of acronyms!).. but I've done it quite a few times so if I can be of any help, please do not hesitate to message me.

The VMP throttle body is the best choice in this case. They have the 18+ electronics variant which makes tuning more easier than using a JMS conversion box (or any equivalent).

Let me know if we can help out at all.. both brands are part of Black Friday sales.

Those are the mounts I use.

The red bushings are the way to go. They are stiffer than stock and transmit very little NVH.

Should order their new 137 mono blade TB.

Does the VMP 137mm mono blade flow more than the VMP twinjet 69mm throttle body?

I could not find any CFM data for these two throttle bodies?

476hp was with the stock manifold and throttle body. That's with long tubes, JLT intake and E85 tune.The 472 on the graph was on a different tune I was testing.

I'll be going back to the same dyno after install and tuning is complete.

Should have everything installed by Tuesday. Hopefully nothing goes wrong.

Nice! Brett Barber is the BEST in the business. You should put down some excellent numbers.

Badass build!

Since I assume you're headed up another 500RPM or so, have you given any thought do doing an aftermarket GC/OPG?
