We have three 427SOHC projects going at the moment. We would be happy to help anyone with their FE engine build or with anything they have a problem with now. Waiting on part vendors on the SOHC engines and they are about a 4 to 6 month project at the moment. Expect this to get better as production of parts picks up.
Hope everyones Cobra project goes well for them in the future.

Hi Kieth, if you check out any of the Roush dealer sites its about 40+ large for a polished 511 IRFE 8 stack. If you add the costs for upgrades like domed air cleaners and the Bowler auto tanny you can walk away at about 50-53 large depending on any extra goodies, inclusive of transportation. Nothing said out of school since its all in the public domain. Time wise, there were some vendor issues. Nuff on that.

BTW luv the cammer.

Cheers, John,AKA, tin-man
