Default Need some guidance or feedback
I am getting back into the Cobra family after being gone for a few years and I am bringing my father-in-law to boot. I am more of a purist and obtaining a 427 side oiler, he is looking at purchasing a Shelby by Backdraft that has a Ford 5.0L Coyote power plant, stock heads, EFI, Tremec 5 World Class transmission. It has Independent front and rear suspension with BMW rear axle 3.73:1 ratio. The engine only has 2600 miles on it and appears to be extremely taken care of.

I've never been around this set up with this type of engine, can anyone provide any feedback on it and any thing we need to look out for.
