    Default Cobra Kit Car

    Good customer of ours, New 650 carb, EVI dyno tune. 351 motor ford crate motor. Made 200hp at the wheels when he came in, and made 326hp when he left. I think he was pretty happy.

    The carb that was on it was a 600 vac secondary edelbrock carb. The back throttle plates probably never opened up. We switched it out with a proform carb and was able to add some timing. Although this before and after dyno number are not typical, it does show what a good combination....or a bad one will do.
