Haven't been on here in a while so here is an update. I installed a 347ci at the end of last year. Have almost all of the Cobra brake set-up just haven't found time to install yet. Had some tuning issues, seems to be all good now thing pulls way harder than my last motor.

Check Out the March Issue of 5.0 mag

Will have Cobra 13.5 brake set-up this year. SVO brakes are OK but I want the bigger fronts w/ cross drilled and slotted rotors. Besides It will look better and stop better. Win/Win situation.
