Totally agree but the RMC chassis rails are very close together so the GM alum engine mount brackets and the rubber engine mount are not suitable without major surgery.

Look in Baz's gallery and one can see the surgery that Neil Streeting did to that RMC chassis to use the standard GM bits. Chassis mods which could well cause an engineer to insist on another beam test.

Not all Cobras are manufactured to accept GM engines.
