The Roush 427R is a pretty torquey engine, be careful when starting off and shifting as it is easy to break the rear end loose. When downshifting don't do it unless you can rev match (which is difficult to do with a Cobra because of the horizontal offset of the throttle and brake pedal). If you can't remember the old saying "brakes go slow, accelerator go".

Don't ask me how I know of this advice.
