A local engine builder told me that just about anybody can build a high HP engine, it's being able to keep it running and reliable that is the trick. I think that is where the phrase "budget build" gets left in the dust. My 390 may not be the fastest Cobra engine out there but it will sure give you a nice ride. Sure I'd like to have a stroked 427, who wouldn't. But the way I see it...I am driving a Cobra and having a blast and there are people all over still dreaming about it. fe390 no shame.
