  1. Interesting photo of the deep sleeve leading to the spark plug. https://www.hotrod.com/articles/hrdp-0908-ford-427-cammer-build/
  2. Can you post some photos?
  3. Great looking project Niko.
  4. I for one always enjoy seeing pictures of the real deal. Any more photos Spike?
  5. You can build a lot of legitimate Cobra variations and never repeat. I'm just getting started with my collection.
  6. Great idea Gary.
  7. The TDR engine is very nice but $50 for the highest print quality 1/25 scale engine is more than I'm willing to pay.
  8. I did add a strip on the backside of the timing cover to close the gap and to create the flange that is vague on the kit part. Also added a strip to the front edge of the intake manifold to close the gap.
  9. Yes you can add strips to either the fenders or the hood.
  10. Haven't seen the Wix in person but it looks nice. I have the Franklin Mint.
  11. Looks like the Street Freak Mustang has the same engine as the Wild Child Falcon
  12. Very nice Richard.
  13. Lotus Europa is my guess
  14. With some effort the high rise manifold from the Revell T-bolt could be made to fit the Moebius block. The T-Bolt engine is a 427 wedge but the port spacing looks close enough, at least for me it is.
  15. Some nice photos of Bob Peoples' Cobra projects, that are in the Model Car Builders' Museum, on page 2 and 3 of this thread.
  16. The Pinto engine was originally installed in the MkI and MkII Escort.
  17. Wonder if any of these 3D printed parts (intake manifolds, valve covers, headers) fit the Moebius block? https://www.shapeways.com/shops/3d-model-specialties?section=427+Ford+SOHC&s=0
  18. Here is the PDF of Gary's article. CobraLayout.pdf
  19. AMT Wild Child Falcon Cammer:
  20. Harold Bradford, the owner and artist behind Historic Racing Miniatures shared with me his build of this kit , needless to say it is very impressive. I'll be following your build Matt.
  21. Gary shared the PDF version of this article with me awhile back. A must read for any Cobra fan (casual to hard core).
  22. More photos here.
