    You'd need the homofagmatic transmission too

    Well yes a powerglide would be tits. Could just sell the 6 speed and pedal set up. Would like to swap out the weak roadrace rear for the bulletproof zl1 rear

    So is it harder to make a car that turns go in a straight line or for a car that likes to go straight to take a turn? Hmmm Either way you will have a nicely installed cage. lol

    Now you just have to choose between supercharger or n/a.

    I actually like the idea of a road race car with a cobra jet motor. Sounds like a winner to me!!!!!

    Agreed that buying the cobrajet car as a package would be the long and most costly way to that end resault. they are proud of that CJ and that CJ motor, quite the price tag on that alone. If it were cheaper I would have already shoved it in my boss. Had that conversation more than once in the bar. On the other hand that new 5.2 flat plane crank they stuck in the gt350 is coming out soon. I'm wondering what kind of pontential that can bring to the table. can't wait to see what happens when they start pushing the air down it's throat.

    Boss 302S or 302R are non street legal versions of the Boss 302, main as turn key race cars for the road course. Similar to the cobra jet.
