They probably call it a bit of a dog, because it likes to pi$$ on a lot of things.

So we presume that you park your AU 347 in the street for that same reason.

I know this will piss some people off but make sure you pick a FORD engine! A Cobra with anything else is just not right! And to go a little further, it needs push rods too!

There's an argument to be made that the LS series engines are more closely related in design to old school fords, be it BBF or SBF engines. Bar of course the badge on the valve covers.

Just saying


Ps. Best not give mike any more ammunition.
Right now I have him up 3:0 on the score board. Ouch!

No, it marks its spot in the garage next to the land rover which also marks its territory.
