Not Ranked
In one thread...just one, we've had folks talking about "matching numbers" for replicas just because the engine was built during the same time period as they were for the originals, which the replicas will never be. In the automotive world, that is NOT what matching numbers means, and care should be taken to speak clearly when describing something so as not to mislead anyone, especially when a car is being built to be sold...including putting tags on the mfg's plate.
Hell, my CSX arruminum non-side oiling FE was built by the Shelby folks while my Kirkham was being built in Poland...so I hereby declare I have a Cobra with matching numbers.
Then we have folks just passing on what they think when someone tells them the aluminum CSXs are built in South Africa rather than just being sourced in Poland...only to find out otherwise by photographic proof. Don't care how much is done to the delivered bodies afterwards...the biggest most visible part of the damn car came from Kirkham.
...and then we have the mysterious Polish arruminum Cobra factory.
All in one thread.
But hey, folks just keep passing on bullsh!t without every asking or trying to find out what the truth is.
