    anyone know this cobra??

    https://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/cto/5511546608.html


    was interested but just seems like its hard to get details from the owner.... after 30 texts I asked if it was a stroker and he said yes.... 331, 347 no idea but he says it was done at a shop and has 9k in the motor.... seems odd to me to have 9k in the motor but have the stock intake on it.... no idea on fuel system, rear end upgrades feels like I have to ask every question to get information

    thoughts???

    My thought is, if someone wants to sell their car, they would be open to discussing it. Have you talked to him on the phone? Text can be hard to use as a judging. That being said, I have never seen the car around the South Hills at all.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump

    I have not tried to call and he hasn't asked me to call him. just the fact that the CL ad doesn't say anything about being a stroker motor makes me wonder... unless he just had the money to dump into it and isn't sure what the shop did to his engine

    anyone know what a good value on this car is assuming its a tuned, supercharged stroker w/ afr heads?? says he has dyno sheets and receipts for everything....

    one of my concerns too, he is claiming 580hp and if its a stock block he wasted 9k because its only a matter of time

    That seems fair for the car. Not a steal, but reasonable if the car is as clean as it looks.
