Thats an awesome car, some guy over on SVTperformance put an 03 or 04 terminator motor into his Kit car, well not just the motor, but the whole drivetrain.
Its pretty freaking awesome

Dislike the new breed cobra's all you like, but im almost positive that 03 cobra motor, four wheels, and a fiberglass shell is faster then any other V8

I've heard about that color. I wonder what their marketing scheme is, though.

Your joking right? HA HA - im laughing because THATS funny! (ps - the red cars in those "real cobra" pics are both fakes.)
This is called a 347 - it has Carburators - do you know what those are? It also happens to make 478 hp and 462 lbft.

This is called a 427 - it also has a carb - (me not included in pic for horsepower - just cause im so stupid looking) It makes over 490 hp and 560 lbft.

This is a fuel injected 453 - yeah he wussed out and used EFI to get his lousy 680 HP and 750 lbft, oh and BTW - THIS unlike other kirkhams is an original (new body - old one was mangled)

Oh and why spend 50K on a fiberglass POS with bad suspension when you could spend 60 on this:
 
Hey - and look - Suspension thats not from a mustang . . .

Because all alumninum cars are ugly.
How many cobra's have you seen with that 680 hp 453? a few probably, now how many have you seen with an 03 cobra motor in it? I like the origionality.
Sorry if i didnt know the true numbers of the old cobra motors, i just figured 600+ rwhp (from the terminator motor, KB/whipple ported blower, etc) was more than most of the motors in them. for whatever reason I thought that most of them made around 300-400 rwhp

It has a supercharger, makes boost. Do you know what those are?
And hey, if the guy can drive the cobra with a mustang suspension quickly, what does it matter? Its not your car after all.
No need to be an [censored], Im allowed to have my opinion. Sorry if you like old technology in old cars, I happen to think its awesome when people do new things, and fuse new things into tired ideas.
Way to go with the massive large pictures, you win the internet.
