It's a Classic Roadsters 427 Cobra Replica. It's now a 306 small block, but soon to receive a maximum effort 415 Windsor..

It ought to be real exciting at 2200 lbs.

Awesome, Jay!

My buddy went crazy and spent an extra 10,000 to put the 428 in it. He's also has a 5 speed Tremec in it. Needless to say those cars rock.

Jay Lincoln- Whatta got over in the corner there? Looks to me like a 65 AC Cobra? Am I correct? If so, kit or original. I had the priveledge to drive my buddies kit around after it got put together and it was bad a$$.
If you go to their main page(the site I posted) and then insert 777K52(no spaces), it will bring up that page--they're on it.

Btw, the ball bearing is the easier of the two methods and that's what I have done.

The PCM has nothing to do with the control of the PCV system--it operates off of eng. vacuum--no electrical connections.

Just pull the hose off of the PCV elbow(rt. cam cover) and place the 7/16" ball bearing in the end of the 3/8" hose(it's not going anywhere) and then push the hose back on to the PCV elbow. Now no 'pressure' can force oil up to the intake--the PCV is 'crippled' but the breather filter(s) allow the crankcase to breathe. I've had mine in for 5-600 miles with no 'worries' including two days at the track. One of the tuners told me how to do this.
