No Two-Valve here-this GT...
No Two-Valve here-this GT gets its motivation from a Twin Screwed '03 Cobra engine. The engine, built right in Derek's garage, displaces 284 ci and uses the stock crank and rods, but Manley Performance pistons were added to the mix with the 0.030-inch overbore. The heads are stock, and have about 20 pounds of boost coming at them from a Kenne Bell 2.2-liter supercharger. If that's not enough, there's a Nitrous Express wet nitrous system on board. To add some contrast to the blower's polished finish, Derek added Ford Racing Performance Parts' cam and coil covers.
