Blykins,
First I agree 100% with all real1 said,but I am an fe freak and fan,but if I werent I would either drive and love my screaming 351,or maybe think about another car,I own a shell valley too and have gotten into the trap of trying to make it look original,I am 10k into parts and 6 mos of work left to do,after moving pedals,new dash and guages,cutting the bulkhead,redoing steering column,engine compartment,trigos,goodyears,etc,it goes on and on,any one who knows cars can tell in a second this isnt a real car,funny thing is the people who dont know cobras,thought it was real before I started,my point is unless I had major affection for the awesome 427's,or was prepared to completely redo my car,is that I would enjoy it as is ,sounds like it is a nice one.
Hal,,I asssume no one has ever told you an alum head 427 weighs in about the same as a 351,funny thing,I never heard any one who has a 427,say they would rather have anything else.Tk
