you need the computer and wiring harness out of the cobra. And then you need the proper exhaust manifolds/longtube headers to go with it so PM PurpleIcedGT with a price on your longtubes if you swap. He will want first dibs on them. lol

what is your budget and RWHP goal? I don't think it is worth the hastle especially since you can yield serious hp out of a 2v motor.

I would go with MMR900 short block, with Trick Flow heads Stage III custom grind blower cams, and KB along with all supporting mods. Would be nasty. Honestly much more than 500 rwhp for a street car is just simply a waste unless it is a track car.

My goal is like 600-700hp. But i can't do it all at once...my budget is like 5k. Im just looking for a good motor that in the future i can slap a s/c on and make crazy numbers.
