ok so the cobra v8 is not my dads its owned by my boss. (who owns all the cars my dad restos)I would just get that cobra engine off your dad and be done with it, might as well put it to use, sitting for how long? I know alot of money was out into it but its money sitting there rotting slowly.
Me I would do the 2.3 Turbo rought, I've heard they can kick a 5.0's ass if built right and still get good milage.
and hes not selling it hes putting it into the elanor clone which just got done body work and the reason things are slow is because hes not doing one car at a time hes doin like 8 and he also runs a cabinetry business (where i work)
and funding all that can be pricy eh?
and the 2.3 turbo?
ok they can beat a STOCK 5.0 but a 331 stroker? unlikely.
also, the turbo setup and injection stuff is beyond my fab capability or id consider it
