Money was an issue...considering that I already had most of the 481 when I started..it was in a 55 Chev, but then the 55 got a 540 inch motor (860 HP...TH400, 4.56 spool...!!) So I figured....new pistons and rings...a little machine work, and I would have that hurdle beaten!! It was quite a thrill to take an all steel 55 (3650 lbs) and cut a 1.40 60 foot time!! I'm wondering how well the Cobra will hook up when it's done....
