Now this is a big block....

Ah! The good ol' GAA tank engine! Those things are huge (and gorgeous)!!! 1100 cubes (18.0 liters!!!) if I'm not mistaken. I'd just like to have one to look at and drool over. There aren't many cars or trucks (except maybe a Ford F-Series Super Duty) that could hold that engine without some major mods.

I remember hearing about a old dealership going out of business and behind the building they found a trailer full of NOS ford chit and a gang 427 SOHCs and cobra jet motors too.

Some guy showed up at the cruise in Somerville NJ and claimed his Cobra was this car. I should have gone back and got him on video making this claim so I could have shot him down with his lie

i would have called bull:q:q:q:q until he showed me. and if it was the real car i would have robbed him at gunpoint, hidden the car and done the time. soooo worth it.

This is one of the more interesting custom Cobra's I have seen around me lately. I have only seen this carb at a swapmeet for sale once and in museums until I saw this.

Yeah but those are Independent Runner systems while there is a plenum tunnel ram on the Cobra.

 

[thaywood]

Wow! I haven't seen one of those in years! I almost forgot it even existed!

WOW that Cobra looks good Black and Gold. Years ago I had a Boss 302 and Some were hear in Fayetteville (A junk Yard) In there garage was a Cross Boss intake and in line carb. Wish I would have bought it. But at the time I knew what it was and had read that they didn't work well in drag racing due to fuel starvation some were on it. But they said it was great for road course cars ??? So I passed on it.
