She laid down a nice safe 470 horses with over 480 torque, I can't wait to drive it!! Hopefully the rain stays away for me tomorrow for the ride back!!
Gonna be a totally new car to me, curious to see the ride quality diferences with going back to the stock springs. My hanging idle issue is history as well, probably an intake leak that caused it, Lidio said it drives and idles perfect.....
Sounds great. I have no doubt you're gonna love the way your Cobra will drive. Pretty hard not to with those power numbers.

I highly recommend Nitto NT555 Extreme ZR tires. A ton of grip in the dry to handle that kind of power. No idea how they do in the rain as my Cobra doesn't get driven in the rain.

Yes - I've never driven mine in the rain either, but, lots of rain here in Michigan of late. Crossing my fingers.

Mother nature was looking out for me - made it home with NO rain! It is now a beast to drive and idles 100% better than when I dropped it off. Just polished it up and now looking forward to some nice weather...
I will get some pics up soon.

Update - I absolutely love driving my car and am very happy with the performance. The ride is nice, but, I really hate the ride height going back to the stock springs. They will not be on my car past this summer.
Oh well - whats a few hundred more bucks.

I'm about to pick up a new polished Cobra intake and only use the top half for now. Sending out the lower to TMOSS to port and flow better. Add the lower maybe next year along with a smaller blower pulley and redyno.

Romo, I see you say you are really close to Paul's. Are you in Jackson or Michigan Center? My parents live in Brooklyn and Paul did some work on one of my cars a LONG time ago. I heard he doesn't work on foxbodys anymore, is that why you went to Lidio?
