[289ERAkit]

Cobra 289 Dudes,

Below is an e-mail of the engine that I'm looking to purchase for $2300.

Is it woth the price?
What Distributer and Carb do you recommend?
Should I use the HiPo exhaust or make my own headers......?
Has anyone used a 351 cam in a 289? What's should I expect form this?

I have a hold on the engine at this time......
