Ready to freshen up my high mile cobra and just dropped off a deposit for a 2005 Aviator engine. I already know I need to swap most external parts off my Cobra engine to the aviator and get a flywheel.
Questions
1. swap my cobra intake cams in place of the Aviators? Is there such a thing as buying custom intake cams only??
2. aluminum or steel flywheel?
3. reuse my exhaust manifolds even though I know they're not ideal for the new exhaust ports? assuming aviators wont work?
4. add any sort of windage tray?
5. do i need to do anything oil pump related or is it just the pickup that is different?
6. Lastly, will the aviator engine make any more hp giving it has better heads and I think more compression?
Anything else? The car is a weekend cruiser and nothing more.
