Oldsmobile! Cobra 442
Old stuff you know. What should I put in this and that. Carroll would put any thing you darn well would pay for in any 'real' Cobra. So, what is 'original' engine. Darned if I know. What I do know is that he and his bunch where the best of the best hot rodders. Nothing more or less. Guys that could take a pile of $hit and turn it to gold (not taking away from the AC).
You that say only a 427 side oiler in a 427 body and only a 289 in a 289 body are missing the point. The point that Carroll made 40 years ago and the one he is making now. As much as it pains me to say this to some folks that I like and respect............. wake up.
Peace out!
