Tuck's 20B

Well here we go! The start of a new project. Where to start? Very simply I'm going to put a 20B in a AC Cobra replica. i know, it sounds weird, but it really makes sense. My last project was a Lotus 7 with a 13B, and after autoxing it for two years I started to think about doing the same thing with the newly acquired Cobra with a bb Ford sitting under the hood. The 7 has almost 50/50 balance and weighs in at 1300 lbs, The Cobra with a 460 that I already had, would be very heavy in the front and be around 2300lbs. By using the 20b I estimated that the car would be about 1600 lbs with close to 50/50 balance. The 460 was to be around 450 hp, 20B n/a I'll be happy with anything over 300hp. Anyway here are a few pics of the car as it is right now, and the 20B as it is:
