Cobra Make, Engine: Owned CSX 3121 1969-1975. Went to the dark side and bought a 'Vette. May yet repent and be saved.

Don't be afraid of putting a real cam in that motor. With 454 CID and a light car, loss of low end power will not be an issue, and a nasty idle is part of the wonderful Cobra symphony. CSX3121 had only 427 inches and I ran a flat tappet cam that Crane described as "marginally streetable" without any difficulty at all.
