I just got a set of NOS '93 Cobra valve covers. I'll post some pics when they get here. Nice pieces. I may put them on the Sport.
Not to be a smartass but arent they the same as MN-12 covers?
Yes.....except they have the word "COBRA" embossed down the center of each one.
congrats dude
I am in interested in seeing pics too , every 93 cobra I gave ever seen had regular MN12 style covers ...of course I have only seen 5 93 cobras
I'm excited.
I'm excited for ya
I know how I am. I'll gt them,look at them,like them a WHOLE lot,then chicken out installing them.LOL. If I do use them,I'll sell the current aluminum covers and make a few bucks back......maybe. I get wishy washy on these kind of things. Kitz knows that real well. he's had to push me pretty hard many times.If he hadn't, the Sport wouldn't be where it is now. Turbocoupe50 got my first H.O project to completion with his over the wire help. If not for them,I may still be looking at cool 5.0 parts and just wishing,as I was back then.
Those are probably '94-95 Cobra valve covers if they say cobra on them. The '93 Cobras don't say anything. I'd probably paint the letters so they show up.
Well, if you don't use them, Vinnie...I have another car, and your other covers will keep these company
Perhaps these are from a '94/'95. Wither way,I don't care. They're new,and awesome.
Jerry,Give me time to check the level of love I'm going to have for them. I had entertained the idea of having them chromed.....sweeeeeeeeeet.
I just bought a GT-40 tubular intake last night as well. I really didn't have the funds to spend,but,I figured for the price,I'd better. I really don't know if I'd use it or flip it so I can get the new Mass Air meter,or just have a few extra funds for the Sport on a couple of other projects. I really like my intake anyway,and IF I kept the GT40 for the Sport,I'd have to.....prepare yourselves for what you're going to hear.....modify it visually to fit my own need for it to be different from everyone else's.
Nothing wrong with a little modification, Vinnie
I know. I don't know why I think I HAVE to do it,but I just want it mildly different from anyone else's. Maybe I can do the Cobra inlay....Hmmm,I have something to think about tonight after the parade.
Jeeze Vinnie, you have automotive ADD about like I do...probably why I can't stay focused on one thing at a time, and now my car looks like it's been stripped in the ghetto.
lol
I don't know if I have ADD, but I probably have some kind of disorder. It's not that I can't make my mind up, I just keep trying to to improve upon the same theme for the Sport . The Sport keeps getting better, but at a little less than a snails pace,plus,she's my daily driver. I think I have my plan for the GT40 intake,but I need to let the current intake find a new home asap. I have a cool idea for the GT40 that my fellow members will really like as well. Modding a GT40 intake, for me, is one of those "Take a deep breath.......here we go" kind of things,because once I start removing some aluminum,there's no putting it back. I won't rush into it.....I'll draw the idea out on paper, plus maybe a couple of more, study them,think about it a lot, then proceed with whatever idea I choose. Plus, working a GT40, I need to make SURE that I do it right the first time.
You know I want a stock GT40 tubular intake. You should give/sell it to me before you cut it up and ruin it ;)
"Cut it up" is such a cold way of putting it. If my intake looked like every other GT40 intake,then it just wouldn't work for me. I will do permanent alterations on it,but it WILL be awesome,simply unique,and right for the Sport.
I may end up selling the NOS Cobra valve covers since chroming is so bleeping much. We'll see how that goes when they get here Friday. I haven't made my mind up yet. I'm in no real hurry.
