Again, it doesn't matter a hill of beans what he considered. It's what he ended up with that matters.

Do I think the Ford engine is better than a GM engine? Not really. I'm not partial towards any brand. However, I do think that a replica of a Cobra deserves a Ford engine.

Plus I'm sick of seeing all the 350 SBC and the 350 Turbo trannies in all the "hot rods". What a bunch of mundane vehicles. No one can think outside of the box.

But getting back to the point at hand: If he thought the GM engine was the best, then he must have thought the Austin was the best platform.

So let's just ditch our Cobras and buy Austin bodies! YEAH!
