Keithc8,

I hope noyone was offended, if they were they have bigger challenges then trying to outfit a Cobra. You are one of the few that say this is what I am offering and this is what you are getting. The big names when I see and like everyone else it is just opinion is Keith Craft and Roush and then the next level comes. With your $17K option you can easily get into a new SPF turnkey for 58K, probably less. You can negotiate a SPF roller with glove box,ss quick jacks, 15" wheel for $41K.

By the way my BDR had a KC306, I will bet $25K no engine was beat harder than I beat it (dropped the clutch, downshift to early, hold in gear to long, never let it warm up, donuts, and smoked anyone that ever thought about racing it). Next owner carried on the tradition, last I heard 15K miles and still running like a champ. I really wanted a larger motor and figured when it went I would buy one, the problem was it would never die or even miss. You hit it right earlier when you said some options (dart block) is not necessary, 99.9% of us could never test the mechanical limits of what we buy we just like bragging rights. I tested that KC306 and it won. I just remembered one of the reason I sold the BDR was self preservation, I hope I have grown up since I sold it or I refilled my luck because I used up two of my 9 lives driving that car!!
