04 Cobra Swap into my 87 GT Build

Very cool, looks great too. If you could just get a picture of the steering shaft clearance and possibly measure one of the tubes coming from the headers whenever you get a chance if possible I would be forever grateful. I would probably go with the smallest diameter (1 5/8) they sell anyway just to be safe, but if a larger size fits it would be great to know.

Also to another topic, how/did you mount the back seats in the hatch and do they latch or just sit there?
 
Nice. They are really close to the pan, but you can put a heat shield in and some extra cooling and it shouldn't be a problem. Really nice pics.
 
For some reason i am not getting notifications when people respond. I have been super busy, but have made some more car progress, here are some pics below...

Looks great!! Kooks makes some nice headers!
Thanks! yea i love them so far

Good thought, i will have to do that

Sweet build , what cams are you using ?

Thanks!, Comp Stage 2 Cams


Here are some progress pics, Painted the hood, interior to match, fitting the SN95 Door panels, OEM fox back seat before recovering to match front seats, cleaned the cobra seats and Leatherique'd them, Fuel pump, diff cover, Willwood brakes and 13" rotors all the way around (will be selling my cobra ones and Baer EradiSpeed Rotors) and a couple other wiring odds and ends

I will try to get some pics and measurements for you, I am just using my factory back seats and ordering TMI Cobra style back seats to match the cobra fronts, and a couple other things too to set off the interior
 
Here are a couple pics of the steering shaft and headers, it's real tight, but does not hit or vibrate

That donor car hurt to look at. Very nice project. I'll be starting on my own Termi swap very soon.
 
Awesome build. What all did you have to do to get that dash into the fox. I have a 98 cobra dash i want to put into my 90 lx. Thanks for any info.
