this is what I like about building a KIT CAR is you get too choose all the best bits and put them into one package that suits your particular needs . I was like you not long ago with the ford engine I drove people on here crazy when I was looking to buy a completed car in the end I couldn't find anything that suited my needs or price range back then .
in my case it has to be auto as I have a mangled left leg that most clutches arnt friendly with the way my leg and ankle works or dosent work .
when I built my first cobra you would have been shot for putting anything but a ford engine in altho there was a few 308 and chev powered as well as a turbo rb 30 around at the time in the end I decided on a 6 lt with a 6 speed auto im not after a race car just a nice sunday cruiser the bloke you pass on the footpath wont know or care whats under the bonnet when you go past there usually just in awe of what they look like .
