Now that is pure logic. Hard to argue against that, well maybe a fool would.

Glad you are still talking to me.

You are correct, for what you have and do you need the aluminum FE. However, for most of the Cobra owners I have met at the London car show, I think Brent is also correct in that they really do not have a need for an aluminum FE. Unfortunately for Brent most people do not understand the difference between a need and a want.
