Well everyone, the cobra had a heart beat yet again today! Got it fired for the first time, and broke her in a bit and went for a drive! Did the first oil change, and everything went pretty smooth. After breaking it in we finished up putting the fenders and hood back in, along with all the other exterior body stuff, Have a few things to button up tomorrow, and than it'll get a nice wash and I'll be posting some pictures. have a few from today as well that I'll get posted up, just wanted to give you guys a bit more progress updates!

As promised here are some pics, did another drive today! The total mileage count on new motor is 30.8 haha! 10 miles on it yesterday, with no hood,front bumper, fenders, headlights. Yeah, we got some weird looks!

Drive today went well, but it threw a p0355 code, and it started missing and doing some weird stuff but only every now and than.. so it's just got a few kinks to work out with the coil(s).. as to be expected. Motor runs strong, and this clutch freaks me out, Mcleod RST Street Twin Disc and the clutch feel is softer than ANY clutch I've ever felt. Softer than my old Hyundai Elantra. It's Amazing!

Motor in, the wiring will be cleaned up as usual. (This is how we broke it in )

Putting some front end back on the car

We also bought a lift, which made life much easier!

Lifts are awesome i just put one in 3 weeks ago and man does it help a lot when putting a motor in.

And what size jets u running in the saleen? And whats the rwhp on it? I bet the things nasty, prolly a lot of fun to drive in haha

How hard was it putting that lift together, if need be are they east to tear down and move?

Nice work! Thats the clutch I plan to get when I do a auto to manual swap on my car. One question though, Why didnt you do a head cooling mod while the engine was out?
