Congrats! Nice looking Cobra!

Don't expect that smile to leave anytime soon!

Have fun, but be safe.

You made the right choice. The only thing you won't be able to pass is a gas station, but is it ever worth it. Nobodys' ever said, gosh, wish I'd a got the "small block"!

Enjoy! You will soon experience the smiles you put on others face as you rumble by. Its an experience like no other.

Be careful, my 460 gave me a few unexpected scares like mid gear fish tails, etc. Expect the unexpected.

Beautiful car,the only thing I see that you might want to play with is the air cleaner.My 460 was not reaching it's full potential until I changed mine out to a 3X14 with K&N Extreme top.On the other hand,if you see no need disregard this post.Besides it made hood clearance a real issue.One of the many times these big motored Cobra's are very impressive is passing out on the highway at any speed,it's as if the other car slams on the brakes as you blast by.Good Luck.Built mine in 93/94
