If this is a continuation cobra why would SAI put in a chevy motor? I thought Continuations were suppose to be something else. Did someone purchase a roller and finish it off themselves?
Although the auction vehicle has already been addressed, the answer to your question is that SAI doesn't install any engine. They sell a rolling chassis minus drivetrain. The purchaser is responsible for drivetrain selection and installation, often with assistance from the dealer but not SAI.
