Have a used one owner [older guy] Cobra recently purchased, bone stock [one reason I bought it]. Want to increase horsepower & torque. I’m sort of new to 4v engines, my background is 2v, mostly GM [yeah, I know, but one can enjoy both, right?].
It likes to rev and when on cam goes pretty good. Even the Ford shifter seems decent, haven’t missed third yet. Motor is straight, very, very quiet at idle, just exhaust burble, naturally aspirated, all stock.
Not interested in turbo or super charging, don't like the "whine" even though obviously helps in getting more air into the "pumper." Also don't like effects on exhaust note.
Sidebar: There's a number of things I want to do to it, but must start somewhere. Also going to order a Steeda shifter, does it add too much noise, since metal to metal is in play?
Suggestions welcomed . . .
