1978 Cobra Jet Jet Boat
Boat manufactured by company called Cobra Jet. 18 ft long, shallow V-Hull. 460 Ford, tunnel ram, berkley jet pump drive.
The boat accelerates like a high performance car, unbelieveable. Great boat for water skiing. The only boat I've ever only needed to give it part throttle to pull up a skiier. Full throttle will rip you arms off. With full throttle, the boat will accelerate so hard, it leaps out of the water before the skier gets even half out of the water, and you have to let go at that point.
The boat is easy to trailer, to launch, to load on trailer, etc. The best boat I have ever owned. Easiest boat to use, most fun with lowest maintenance.
Kind of like a cobra, but on the water.

chassis dyno Roush 427R
Here is a chassis dyno of a Roush 427R crate engine, as installed in a Superformance. They have installed many of these 427R engines in cobra's, and this is the best output any of the 427R engines had made. They are rated by Roush at 550 HP and 535 torque at the flywheel. The engine was not run above 5800 rpm's where you would expect to see max HP, but the max torque is a good value.
I wanted to use this engine as a benchmark to compare my 427 SO engine to. Both cars running the same sidepipes.

Dump Truck vs. Baylor student 2
Dump truck going 60 rammed the back of a stationary Cobra sized car driven by a college student. The car was launched into the air and COMPLETELY ACROSS a large culvert like a soccer ball. No tire tracks for more than 30 yards. Driver survived.
