I'll pick a new one up from GTR but thanks. You can have to 80mm housing once I install the 90mm.

I found a guy on ebay selling a pair for $130 so I bought them. Summit has them for $88.95 each.

I worked on the Cobra Sunday and got the cam changed and the front end put back together. Then I spent a lot of time sanding the deck for the new gaskets. I received the new head gaskets but I need to lap the valves before I install the heads because I have a couple that are leaking now because of the lean condition with the intake gasket. I aslo found that almost all of the valve seals are off and they are Viton style seals. That would also contribute to the oil burning issue. These are the only pictures I took from yesterday.

Looking good. Curious to see where you end up power wise when done.

Same here. I don't think it will be all that much different than the last time I went. The only thing that's changing is the cam, the rest of the issues shouldn't have had that much of an effect on the WOT pull.
