Very cool... I've really being seeing lots of stuff on the Roush 427SR SB during my 7 months plus of research and everyone who has one seems to be totally happy theirs. My love of the history behind the FE 427SO BB makes me want to test drive one before I decide to go with a 427 SB. Either way its going to feel great to actually get behind the wheel that first time. If feels good though to have made my choice to go with SPF. I had no idea there were so many choices in builders out there when I first started my search last year. LOL!

Go see Dennis Olthoff. He has an amazing amount of seat time in Superformance Cobras both on and off the track. He will ask what you want to do and make some brutally honest recommendations. Dennis has assisted me through both my Mark IIIs and I could not be happier.

Awesome!!! I'm so happy the Dennis Olthoff and his shop are just up the road from me. I'm definately going to handle my entire process of getting my SPF MKIII through Olthoff Racing. Thanks ofr your comments I greatly appreciate it and I'm looking forward to getting it all done within a year or less... Fingers Crossed to get my Dream Car!!!

I'm not namin' names, but off the to of my head, there are maybe 4 or less Cobra replica manufacturers that I would look long and hard at if I were going to buy another one. Living within an hour and a half drive of Dennis Olthoff's shop would seal the deal for me on which way to go. The official Superformance headquarters might be in Irving, CA., but the real ground zero for SPF is Mt. Ulla, NC. No sh!t.

Absolutely!!! I've been reseaching the 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 since last year and only recently discovered that Olthoff Racing is located practically in my back yard! I'm stoked to visit Dennis and his shop. Especially now that I decided to go with SPF MKIII as my replica choice. For me, there is no other way to go but SPF through Dennis Olthoff.
Mt. Ulla here I come!!!!

How deep are your pockets? If you got the cash, think about a big block all aluminum 427from Shelby or Pond. Big horsepower, better idle, and light weight...That's the way i'm going when the 351 stroker blows. Which ever way you go, have a healthy respect for the accelerator as these bad boys can get away from you in a heart beat.
