The more i research Roush the more I've started looking at smaller builders. I recently got in touch with Smeding performance who has a Cobra Special 427 600HP with a Borla 8-stack injection system. They have great reviews, low warranty claims and several write ups in hot rod mags and everytime i call or email they are right there. The numbers, especially torque look impressive but again I'm a newbie to the cobra world. Can someone who knows their stuff have a look at this engine and tell me what they think? Is this going to have a really rough idle and bucking at low rpm? Also if you've heard of Smeding Performance.

Thunderbird123 - feel free to PM me as I have first hand experience of Smeding and this exact same engine that went into my first BDR.
