Preparing to install newly rebuilt engine in 99 Cobra few questions on supporting items that I may still need. This is going into an NA open track road race car designed for 20-45+ min sessions
03 marauder block
04 Mach 1 crank
03 Cobra Rods
JE Pistons forged
GT 500 oil pump with boundary forged gears
03 Marauder heads, 5 angle valve job with mild port and polish (west side performance in Houston)
98 Cobra intake cams, stock exhaust timing set to 110/114 with adjustable gears
ported stock length lower intake with a spacer
ported stock 03 throttle body
bassani mid length headers with cat less xpipe and 2.5" cat back
10.5 : 1 compression
with this set up I expect to shift at 6Kish and have a fairly broad power band suitable for road coarse use. Based on reading other similar combinations I expect this to 370 rwhp ish. Hopefully higher but goal is for a broad power band to power through and out of corners not peak #. I tried to stay with factory items for durability.
Who still ports lower intake manifolds?
I saw that stiegmeier list lower porting on his site but didn't find anyone actually using his lowers during searching.
Will this combo peg my stock MAF?
I'm fairly certain this will peg my stock 24lb injectors.
Will my stock fuel pump keep up? (couldn't find a definitive answer on this through searching)
thanks in advance
