Thanks! I had originally bought a stock steel hood for it but then after getting the Cobra drivetrain I was worried about clearance, and since it's a supercharged 4.6 I thought the Termi hood would be perfect for it.

any updates?

Not a lot to report, it should be the next one in line for paint I think so might have color starting in the next month or two.

Last week I bought this 98 Cobra from a guy in Florida off the SVTPerformance.com forum. Below are the details of the car and some pics that he took for his ad. I know of only two issues with it so far, first the clutch cable was incorrectly installed into the firewall adjuster so I need to remove the rubber piece off the cable and fix that issue, and it seems to have a power steering fluid leak that I think is coming from the rack but I haven't had a chance to locate it for certain just yet and I need to power wash the undercarriage. Other than that so far it's just a really clean Cobra with most of the mods being on the suspension side. I plan to take it to some local Auto X events and just use it as a fun car until my 1992 Coupe build is finished.
