You ain't kidding. Doing everything himself and just knowing little things like the threading on the spark plugs, what bolts up on the block and what don't on a different block. I always thought it was just aluminum or a cast iron block, never knew there was a completely lighter and stronger different material block made. That man is pretty dam smart

Hey body maybe you can help me I have a 2005 corvette base model with a third Jen block built v2t supercharger and methanol producing 850whp but I'm having a issue with over heating I put double fans and still keep getting hot any pointers.

Man, the Cobra is turning out awesome Chris! Thanks for hitting us up for parts and we're excited to see how the build looks complete! Also, painting the valve cover Sonic Blue was 100% the move!🔥

Turn the drill fixture sideways and you can use it to drill and tap the hole for the timing cover. If you go through use thread sealer on the bolt.

Also Chris, while you're at it, one of the 'must do' things with these cars is replace the passenger side secondary tensioner. It is an incorrect design from SVT. Cobra Engineering makes the correct one out of billet aluminum. Ask James about it. A very worthy upgrade in probably everyone's opinion who rebuilds the engine in these cars.

Bro. Like I can’t stress it enough such amazing content you put out Chris. I honestly have so much respect and admiration for the dedication and the work you put in all these cars. That being says your videos are so awesome the editing background music even the little jokes here and there. Spot on my man and also thank you I learned so much from watching you.

Came across your video at just the right time. Building the engine in my 2005 Aviator. Vapor blasted all the aluminum parts. Powder coated blue the valve and timing covers. Almost the same shade of blue as yours. Replacing all timing components, new valves, lash adjusters, roller followers and Comp cams stage one cams. $$$ Sourcing parts from MMR, Rock Auto, Summit Racing and Jegs. Thanks for showing some part numbers for additional parts I am currently ordering. Love these engines but they are very expensive to build.

Love your videos man! I'm still trying to come to grips that 03/04 Cobras are 20 years old now.....Seems just unreal to me how fast those years flew. I remember hearing all the rumors about these late '01-early '02 and then seeing them come out and how well they responded to pulley swaps, tunes, exhaust etc.

The reason they were so legendary is because of their potential. What they did stock was also impressive for that time especially at their price range but their legendary status isn't because of that its the potential they had. They kept breaking rods in testing so they were forced to throw in manly h beam rods factory which costed them alot more because factory rod tech wasn't good then they hadn't figured out how to make them strong yet cheaper yet like they did with the 07 up gt500 and coyotes later on. They were powder forged and can still take some good power but not as much as the h beam obviously they're actually forged. So because of the engine being so overbuilt you can just throw whatever at it like modern cars but it's 20 years old. People are spoiled now you can just buy a base gt and make alot this wasn't the case in 2003. These things were so far ahead of their time. I was 19 when they first dropped summer 02 never forget it

I am so happy I found this channel!! I got recommended one of your videos a couple weeks ago, and have binged almost all your videos! Love the clean meticulous work you do! Another KZread channel that I think would be perfect to collab with is Michael Sabo! He works almost exclusively on quads, but the similarities of both your channels is crazy! He recently bought a Corvette that was in a flood, and I think a collab build would continue to blow both your channels up! Anyways, can’t wait to see you continue to gain subscribers and have your channel grow! You definitely deserve it!

Nice work Chris. Cobra guy here and been here since the beginning. Your content is awesome. One thing that I wanted to add since I’ve been down the cobra rebuild route is make sure to pull apart your oil cooler and flush out the inner cartridge multiple times with cleaner then multiple times with hot oil. I would hate to see you run sparkles into that perty new engine. Keep rolling bud, good stuff.

@johndunsmuir5623

The oil cooler had me worried too. A few years back Sean Hyland made a CD, "How to rebuild the Ford 4.6 Engine". In the section on Inspection at the 3:00min mark, he recommends replacing the oil cooler and suggests that it is not rebuildable. If it were my car I wouldn't risk it. I look forward to Chris's videos, especially the Terminator ones, they are exceptionally well done.

Your comment on the imperfections of the valve covers. Being a novice in the extreme that I am…. I think it looks bad ass!. It looks mean! with the little imperfections you called out in the video… love sonic blue too…. outstanding…thank you.

I dont like ford's or mustangs, but this older cobras I always like as a teen. Good job so far, keep it up.

52 minutes long?! Bro, thank you!

Holy crap! NEVER heard of a tighten/tighten/loosen/tighten/tighten/tighten sequence before! Learn something new everyday apparently lol

Iron block is stronger than a Teksid FYI. But the 68lbs savings is nice and it's still plenty strong for probably 90% or better of set ups. There's no denying the new edges are pigs, anywhere you can afford to shave weight with no compromise, you do it! 😂

The 4.6L DOHC block is a 6 bolt main. It’s a killer block. 4 on each main cap and 1 on the side of the block into the main. Definitely an under appreciated engine. I miss my 03 Mach 1. I look forward to watch your build. Keep up the good work.

Stumbled on your channel and it giving me hope for the engine noise I have on my 03 redfire. It was perfect when I owned it the first time. Now owning it the second time I rescued it from just sitting. I have gone through the whole car but engine work on 4v have always intimidated me. Glad I found your channel!

How do we go about potentially buying from you?

Bro thanks for showing us the process on your builds ! You inspire me to learn more about cars man! I'm learning a bunch from watching your videos! Keep up the good work Chris!

2 cleaners that work extremely well and are cheap are Crown PSC 1000 parts cleaner solution (Tractor Supply). It is low voc but works. For decreasing, Totally Awesome Cleaner (Dollar Tree and many others). It actually works better than Gunk. I was blown away that it's super cheap but works. Just don't leave it on bare aluminum for too long. Just like Gunk, Purple Power and Simple green it will darken aluminum if left too long. Enjoy your channel btw👍

Fantastic job very informative!

Really good stuff enjoying the vids. Would suggest doing head studs. That way when you get a bigger blower (you're going to as they are magic on built motors) you don't have to go pulling the car apart to do the studs. Skip the 8740 and just go straight to 2000's. Also, on the extra timing cover bolt hole for the Teksid, if you flip around the Cobra Engineering drill fixture, it will perfectly line up one of the holes where you need to drill into the block. You only need about 10-12mm of depth. 15mm or more and you risk puncturing through to the water jackets. Then just cut/shorten one of the timing cover bolts and plug the old hole with a set screw and sealant. That's the right way to do it. Also make sure to upgrade the oil pump gears to billet.
