Differences: original 289 Cobra & original 427 S/C Cobra
What are the differences between the 289 Cobra and the 427 S/C Cobra?
For starters, the obvious:
289 Cobra has a hi-po small block 289
427 Cobra has NASCAR 427 side-oiler
289 has "buggy spring" front suspension
427 has coil spring front suspension
289 has forward-braced roll-hoop
427 has rearward-braced roll-hoop
289 gas cap located mid-panel behind the passenger seat
427 gas cap located on the top of the right rear fender
289 has exhaust pipes under the car
427 has exhaust pipes on sides of car
What other comparisons can be made that I've overlooked?
