Best Cobra? Well, that is first answered by, "show, or Safe Going" I would use mine on the track and the street.
For my money, putting power on the road safely with VERY little Flex in the frame is a totally round tube frame. The main frame tubes are thick walled extruded steel. Not hydraformed tubes. All joints on frame are gussetted. Smaller sized round stock (extruded) is to be used on the remainder of the frame build. The car will be designed so that bump stear is a non-issue. Four wheel disk brakes by Willwood. Rims by Vintage Wheel with custom offsets. I would like a custom hand laid 5 layer, one piece, fiberglass body so there are never unsightly seams showing up as the car ages. All guages to be custom made in England by Smiths. Seats by Europa, in leather. Brightware is the to be brass and the tripple nickel coated. Also supplied by Europa. Finally the car would be built by a technician who is full time building AC Cobras as a full time job. The Motor clutch and transmission would be supplied be a qualified NASCAR engine builder with proven results in the Canadian Tire series. I would not even consider a Rousch motor. Not even if it has stage 9 tuning.
Boss Replica Motors, on the web has these options. Have a look, if your interested. Or take a wee look at the web sight and think about Safety and speed. Ya get what you pay for. And great don't come cheap.
