IMHO ...... go with a 427w

Plenty of power and you won't break the bank building one and every pound you can get off the front end will make the car handle better on the track. However none of us will be really racing our cars professionally so build a motor that you can drive at the track occasionally and drive on the street most of the time. Big blocks are really close to the foot boxes and will be much warmer on your feet than a small block. (past experience)

If you have the money to do an aluminum block .... go that route but I prefer a cast Dart block.

Coast High Performance
Gordon Levy

They all build 427 ci small blocks or you could just do it yourself .....that's the fun part.

I also didn't mind mine not being authentic ....."they're all fake" ...lol

New to the forum and am looking to start a new Cobra project in the next month or so but wanted to look at a Hurricane kit in person.

I'm also considering buying a car either semi complete or in finshed form and re-working it to my taste for anyone looking to sell.

Anyone located near Denver CO?

If so, let me know.

Thanks,

Lu

I have a new, short shaft that was installed in my TKO600 by Mike Forty but I now need a long shaft for a small block so I converted it back. He charges $325.00 unless you send him your new core but I will sell mine for $275.00 obo.

Let me know if you interested.
