got the cobra manifold sitting at home. gt40 heads, 255lph Fp, adj FPR, msd blaster coil, boil the block, new clutch assembly, 24lbs injectors, E303 cam, new rings, bearings. It was blowin a little blue smoke so i'm basically rebuilding the engine but adding some after market while it's out. $$ haha, but it will be worth it.

Just the stock engine after it gets an overhaul, and throwin some other fun stuff into it as well . They weren't that hard to get out. I had already taken off the heads, headers and manifold so it made it easier to see and take off the starter. as you can see its up on all jackstands so their was plenty of room to get underneath it. Didnt give me any trouble at all
