Small block Chevy in a cobra?

Corvairs are cool!

Their value is coming up the last decade or so but probably the value is still influenced by Nader's book.

Lets go back to the original post. If you put a Chevy engine in you're Cobra, then your not going to disguise it as a Ford. So why would you disguise a electric motor as a petrol engine. Is someone going to open the bonnet and go, wow it's really a Ford engine, and it's sooo quiet. JD

Don't be surprised. Lots of guys go through serious pains to make things look what they're not.

1. Valve cover adapters to put Ford valve covers on Chevy engines. (Seen it.)
2. Valve cover adapters to make a SBF look like an FE. (Seen it.)
3. GLUING bolt heads to the side of an FE block to make it look like a 427. (Seen it.)
