And I really wonder how much is enough.

Don't get me wrong, there will always be those who want more but an out of the box compliant LS1 corvette engine produces what ... 430hp. in the old scale?.

That power in a 1200 Kg cobra translates to very serious performance potential. Given our roads are not conducive to 200 Kph travel means we gear our cobs for light to light runs anyways.

The latest 5 and 6 speed boxes look after the highway cruising.

Again, don't get me wrong and this is not a criticism (sp) of Craigs car. Craig wanted something different and set about doing exactly that..good on him. I admire the car.

But it is not the end of the world for us normal everyday cobra enthusiasts who want a car which is admired by most and which will blow the doors off most production cars.
