Dimis,
That is a great looking Cobra! Just need to get the steering wheel on the correct side! ;-)
In my opinion the LS motor is by far the best pushrod engine ever built, bar none! Carroll Shelby was a Hot Rodder at heart and the first Cobras where built with that mind set! And like any hot rodder he wanted the best at the time (SBC), when that failed he went with what he could get, the SBF! So the fact is I built his original intent not what he was forced to settle for? Shelby made the SBF what it became, not the other way around! FE motors, please! If I need a nostalgia fix that bad I’ll visit a museum!

And just for your information the 15 mpg was @ 80 mph on a 700 mile round trip. On the return leg it had a 1000# stainless steel range in the bed! I don’t care if it impresses you because as a driver it has made me happy and a butt-load of Mustangs & Lightning’s SAD!
A bit dirty but again it's a driver!
