allen19d Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 Hey everyone, I'm currently doing research on what needs to be done on my 1996 Cobra engine and drivetrain before i put the KB on it. I thought to myself what a better way to learn then to post on a forum so here I am. so any type of suggestions or good facts would help out a lot. thanks i look forward to some answers.

SniveTroll Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 You can buy the kb 1.6 or 1.7 for the b-headed cobra. Get a stryker 340 pump. You can use an lmaf OR use a more accurate ba2800 tonsil maf. Port the heads and manifold for the blower. Even if its a casting and bowl clean up. You'll get some extra oomph out of it. You should be around 400. With kb and heat id recommend a minute water/meth injection. Even if its a mr. Freeze system from anderson motorsports.

LilRoush Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 What kind of power are you hoping to make with the set up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilRoush Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 I'd do a trans and rear end beef up if you plan on putting that much power to it on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dutch Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 im wanting 550 hp to the wheels honestly for a starter.You'll never make that with a Kenne Bell on a B-head 96-98 cobra. 350-400rwhp is ballpark normal number for that combo.Besides that, your stock internals with take a dump at 450rwhp, so you'd have to add forged rods/pistons too.
