Argentinean Cobra factory update ua-cam.com/video/Enl_84fKTWA/v-deo.htmlsi=3z1waV7q9VH-LhGt

I love your Raptor!😂

Nice video Pete love seeing all the classy cars

Wow!! Congratulations Pete!! Looks fantastic!!

The series of episodes really do work well, thank you for an enjoyable hour! (Again).

I've had one for almost 3 years now and I bought it used. This distributor is the best. The only problem I've had is I set my rev limiter too low and my cheap tach couldn't keep up with it so it looked like my engine was missing at 5400rpm but I was hitting the rev limiter at 5800rpm. I readjusted to 6000rpm and no more problems.

This is very familiar, hahaha. Now Im back its build time all my backorder parts showed up so i can start building

Outstanding Pete. I'm still on restrictions since my procedure but will be hitting it again soon. Beautiful car

I know what is going to play through my work day today!! Thanks for putting this together Pete!

I see new owners of hurricane want 80 thousand for a new cobra it sucks

If your cobra wasn’t made in the 60s then it’s a kit car!

I recently purchased a cobra replica from the mid 80's, but I can't seem to identify who made it. Was told it was an early Shell Valley, but called them and they said it's not one of theirs. Hoping you can send your contact info and possibly help me figure it out.

Amazing skills!

I also didn't realize we were talented enough to back up our Cobras in order.

Awesome Cobra Picnic! Great Videos!

That was a real happening! All were wide bodies and sounded right.That little red 68 Wagon brought back some memories. My Dad had light blue 66 390, green dot heavy duty MX Cruisomatic. All those Cobras! 🐍. Beautiful day, beautiful spot and beautiful place for peace. With all the BS going on. This was a beautiful piece of what we do this!

u barely covered unique. not being mean but thats why i watched this.

Just watched a couple of your videos. We just bought a cobra, Gen 1 I believe. From Hurricane out of lees summit Missouri. I believe bought in 2007. The pedals are not mounted to the floor. I was wondering if you still had your gen 1 manual and if so could I get a copy of it?

Very interesting! You may be on to something. More testing and an update video coming soon?

I had a Porsche 928S2 5 speed that had problems with the MAF. I tracked it down to the fact that for some reason the plug on the MAF itself would corrode and since the voltage is tiny, this slight corrosion was enough to make the car run rich. I just learned to pull the MAF (takes 5 minutes in this car) and clean the plug again. I thought about changing the connector at the harness end, but that looked like it would add more problems than it solved. The system was Bosch LH-Jetronic 2.2. To tell you what sort of effort it took to sort this out, there is a man named John Speake in the UK who is the MAF guru; He had the exact same car that ran perfect and sent me his MAF exchanged for mine, and it worked good for a while and then started acting up again. He later told me my MAF worked perfectly on his car. Fuel injection is a better idea but it still has its quirks and gotchas. The best thing you can do is install a wideband air/fuel ratio meter so you know what is going on. I discovered the system on my car could be set, but it didn't have the flexibility to feed the engine in all situations. You could set it lean so that it didn't stink like an old school bus at stop lights, but then you lost power at the top end. Or you could set it rich so it pulled like a bull to redline, but then smoked and stank at idle. Literally, the system was too small for the near 7000 RPM V8 engine. I discovered this via the A/F meter. I added a rising rate fuel pressure regulator and via some trial and error, got it set so that the system could run around 15.0 at idle and driving around, but went right to 12.0 at full throttle and held it there to redline. I had an aftermarket Porken ignition chip and running Chevron 93 octane, never had a bit of detonation. Porsche 928's were not known for their dragstrip domination, but this one ran in the 13's @ 105 mph when I was done with it, and that with tons of tire spin from only 286 cubic inches and 2 valves per cylinder. Great video!

I’ve had one in my old motorhome for over a year now and it’s run flawlessly. Helped with hill climbing performance, fuel effy, and hot starts.

That's very cool, pete. I'm curious how it will perform after you really put through the paces 😅

I’m going on three years. And your price is a bit low…

I built my cobra in 1991 and had to sell it during covid, i am still heart broken

They built 75 260 cobra,s. The 289 was where the legend was born. The Cobra doesn't,t need more than that. Shelby didn't,t want to use the 427,s.

You forgot a Canadian made replica "johnex" built until 2010 near Hamilton Ontario Canada

Epic!

Love this song I use to play it on my guitar all the time along with radar love. Very cool pete

I'm so impressed with the Cobra . Built the way you wanted it to be and I totally agree with your reasoning. So glad that I could go along on the ride. Wishing that I counld be there in person to share it with you. I really miss you my freind, but it's always good to see you in these videos.

beautiful car!

Very cool

Yes, impractical daily. But once or twice a month, bliss!

What's the price on something like this 40K?

This is a great video, pete. A True Cobra owner that tells it like it is no fluff

Your cobra sounds awesome Pete! Thank you for the video

i got my ffr mk1 in 06 from the builder unfinished , ive loved every second of it , i'll never get rid of it and after almost 20 years with my 30 year old car im ready for the next thirty years with it and once im gone it goes to one of my boys

Where can I get Super Clean products, they look like they work great?

Love me some Super Clean, I always have a bottle in the garage. Works really well for old greasy engine bays. Thanks for sharing your experiences!

It was my dream car since I was fifteen and saw Gumball Rally. I finally have one and it is the most "Practically impractical" vehicle I have ever owned, and I absolutely LOVE it....

Looks great to me!

Ooh I like it, did you have to send a template or are those off the shelf parts? Mine will have the drop pedals so curious about the fitment there.

The importance of this can’t be overstated. You have to have a good purchase for your heels in a manual shift car, and especially in a car that is as twitchy and unpredictable as a 427 FE Cobra. Under acceleration, things are happening at warp speed. The 1000 hp Turbocharged pickups are child’s play compared to the Cobra with the 427 FE, like the snake, it will sink its fangs into you as easily as anything else. I really like the these mats. Even if you have a T56 trans with dog rings on 1-4 and clutch on 5 and 6 this sure footed grip helps keep your concentration absolutely where it needs to be. I want a 410 FE at 413 ci with twin VS3582 s at 9 psi. with a dog box T56. lol 😂 like the Cosby twin Paxton Cobra!

Great stuff.

You just got to love it. The looks the sound and of course the smell

Wow, awesome!

So what will you now be using? I saw a guy in California who used the Edelbrock Pro-Flo 4 EFI system…. I have to say… I was intrigued. I live in Colorado and about to pull the trigger on a build. I am worried about the altitude… we live at 7400 ft…. But the surrounding are is around 6200 ft… just don’t want to deal with a carburetor

Love the shirt

I’m sure you drive mostly local but are there any favorite places you go?

She sounds amazing!!! To me that’s almost half the fun. Listening to an absolute monster. In the best possible way!

Great video Pete you always hit the nail directly on the head
