It's a standard legal disclaimer. Virtually every piece of speed equipment you buy today has this disclaimer written on it.

However, and this is a big HOWEVER! If you plan on dropping the FMS 392 into your new Cobra, and then getting it registered, you may have a problem with your State DMV if the year the car is registered as is based on the year of the engine.

You'd be better off finding a pre-'75 engine, salvaging the parts you need, and doing the buildup from there. You might find you can buy the entire pre-'75 car with a 351W in it in your local Want Advertizer for about the cost of a junkyard core.

There are better, and less expensive ways to build 393W power. Current issue of MM&FF has 393W cylinder head shootout with some impressive ##'s.
