As for purity of original spec, that makes sense for a restoration of an original 1960's Cobra. Cobras built in the 2000's are replicas and "original spec" is superfluous. An exercise somewhat like a puzzle or Sudoko, to keep one's mind engaged and brain cells from dying off. Using the correct hose clamp, dual versus single batteries, Girling versus Wilwood brakes, etc. doesn't add or subtract from a replica's character or center, because the difference(s) are really just inside one's mind.

Oh, good news then. Your position doesn't conflict with SAAC's? Then you agree SAAC is correct putting aside their motive.
Whew!
That was easy.
