We have five of Keith Crafts motor in our group.
Coach Lane bought a 428 stroker (461 ci 601 hp 619 tq) from Keith four or five years ago. He drove it over 8,000 miles before he sold it last Feb. No problems, very fast, very streetable and easy to drive.
Mike Lanihart had Keith to stroke his 427 s.o. to 487 with 620 hp and 650 tq. Very streetable motor. Fast!!!! Spin to 7000 like a chain saw.
Mike had Classic side pipes installed and his sounds deeper and robust. There is a differents in the sound of the muffler on Cobra sidepipes.
Both motors were 9 to 9.5 compression. The more cubics you have the less compression and cam you need to make the same hp.
Keith builds a great street motor for a Cobra.
I'll call him.
Dwight
P.S. My little small block with KC heads and cam is making 400 hp at the rear wheels. I have Classic sidepipes also. It sounds like a Cobra should sound.
