Not Ranked
big bore & short stroke
A couple of years ago there were 2 guys on CC that had 358 Nascar motors in their Cobras. One posted a video of 2 laps at one of the 2 or 2 1/2 mile tracks. He was turning 8000 rpm at times. I could not find the link to the video, I guess I lost it.
This is an Ebay ad for a Nascar motor that sold about 3 years ago for about $5200.
