Keith has estimated that my 427 (482) cast will put out in the area of 630 hp. I am sure that an all aluminum 527 will be putting out at least 700 hp, and as brettco said, "More than you could ever use!" I am trying to get Keith to build mine in the area of 500 - 550. Really, in a car that weighs 2,500 lbs, do you honestly think you will be able to use 700+ hp? IMHO

All thing considered, you can put together a pretty good argument that the 427 Cobra is the ultimate performance car, judged on any basis you want to name."
