FYI, there were 16 leaf spring Cobras with automatics produced.

Did you ever notice the amount of innuendo laced questions that Wally asks as if he is attempting to compile his own Cobra facts registry without just simply spending the money for a set of SAAC registries

Sadly, Wally will eventually have enough information to actually publish a book, which of course he will call "his own research" even though his only research is making posts like this one above. Even sadder is that he will twist this "research" into his version of an alternate reality. Worse yet, someone will buy it and actually believe what he has written.

Yes, the truth hurts.

Further sadly ( and without malice) there is almost never a follow-up post to his threads....either with a "thanks" or a follow-up question.

I really believe he does not return to his many threads.

CW,
Maybe you should give Wally a chance to redeem himself and let him in on the news about the V-12 SOHC engine. It would give him a chance to research the full story and get back to us. There is still a lot of missing information on that engine.

You are probably right...he would jump on it.
Should I post the article here or on a new thread?

I think a new thread would be good, you can still put a link here to the thread in case he actually comes back.
