Beautiful day in Chicago to be outside. I just took the Cobra for a ride. Letting it cool down and reading some posts a thought came to me.
You see many posts discussing all the aspects of what is the best engine and setup. To me, and maybe to you, it has nothing to do with horsepower or hook-ups
or any thing else.
The best part of the whole experience, by far, is the sound. Maybe I am nuts but that sound is what I wanted.
I dont care if it has 200 cubic inches and 180 HP or 507 cubic inches and 1000 HP. Its the sound that says I got what it takes.
And its not at full throttle its sitting at a stop light. The sound of a 427 with a 250 degree cam idling at 900 RPM's gives me goose bumps.
So just a thought for you guys considering what engine to use ....what really makes you feel good. Maybe it is something other than numbers.
