Not Ranked
Guys;
Thanks for the advice. My original build was to be a Unique FIA with a 400hp+ SB. However after years of exposure to Cobras and Cobra people I've come to the conclusion that I won't be happy with less than 500hp and 427cid. I want to do the build myself, and I DON'T want registration hassles just when I'm ready to go. I can get everything from a stroker crank to a full 427W long block from CHP and PAW, to name a few, but after many hours spent in research I have my own ideas on which components to use and they are different from the parts houses'engine packages. A 1978 or older truck engine seems like a good place to start, then by the time it's finished I'll have a few options for registration. I'd still like to hear from someone who knows of a good machine shop in my neck of the woods. Thanks again.
