Just an FYI, Cometic recommends that when using their head gasket on aluminum heads that you re-torque after initial startup.

"A re-torque is recommended after initial start-up and cool down (allow 2 - 3 hours for cooling)." - Tech Pub

This was all done by you? Do you have new dyno or track numbers after completing the new head work? How difficult was it to do? Where would I find the Cobra parts you used?

The difficulty depends on your mechanical ability and access to tools. Its not hard as longs as you know what you are doing. The Cobra springs can be purchased from Comp Cams and the fuel injectors you can buy on ebay.
