Jim,

Lets assume that a typical Cobra weighs 2450 lbs. With 350 Hp that will give you a power to weight ratio of 7-1.

This should equate to sub 5 second 0 to 60 times. (With a proper chassis and tires.)

This would make the car faster than 99% of the road cars out there from a acceleration standpoint.

Also, a 350 hp 351 is going to be inexpensive enough that you can spend the money left over for proper chassis stuff such as Dampers, Wheels, Tires, etc.

Might even have enough left over to go to a race school as well.
