You might try looking at the Canton products, theyare nice polished aluminum and not TOO pricey. I am sure they make a reservoir for the Cobra, maybe the Lightning model too.

Thats a damn good deal! It may be even as good of a deal that i got for mine!

If i had the extra cash i would buy it as a spare.

How hard would this be to swap onto a 1997 2v? would i need to change out the heads to the PI ones? Because if not, i might just jump on it.

not as good of a deal, he's changed his wording a bit since my email, but he's still 100% positive that the '03 harley truck this came off of had 3 valve heads (he counted)

He needs to know that the PI heads have smaller combustion chambers and swapping them on his truck will raise the compression ratio considerably.

it's the perfect time for a rebuild and then toss the boost at it and see how long the tranny lasts
