I am having a Backdraft built for me in SA to be delivered to New Zealand.
It will be powered by Roush as well. These engines are recommended by the guys at BDR and I have not heard anything but good reports about them. My has been purchased sight unseen so I am totally relying on the experience and recommendation of the Backdraft team.
Good luck with yours, when do you get to take your first outing in it ???

Mate .... Looking foward to the first run ??? ....BIG understatement.
I've got another three and a bit weeks to go until I head over to South Africa for a look at my car, finished, hopefully a couple of runs around the block, a few adjustments, and then an agonising 40 days to wait while it is shipped out to NZ AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

But hell I know it's all goingto be worth it. It is now about 16 years since I fist considered the potentiality of being an Owner of one of these beasts. At that stage I was living in Sydney, Australia, and was pretty keen on a replica being manufactured in Wesren Australia. Then moved back to NZ, young family, new business ventures and here I am 16 years later finally about to realise probably the longest term goal I have ever had. Great fun to come though I'm sure.

Anyway I digress, sorry.
I'm going with the 342R. Should be enough power for me this time around, until I get use to it and then who knows what could happen from there. One thing is for sure though I know this will not be my last Cobra.
Hope you enjoy your first ride. I know !! ( silly statement ) of course you will
