'03 Cobra block and added two cylinders. They ran that car at my
local track. As it was mentioned previously, it ran through clutches.

Yes and yes...it was in MM&FF and it was tested at Milan.
I think it might've been in 5.0 magazine too. I'm pretty sure it was.
Im pretty sure that that was the test car for the new Shelby concept Cobra.. It was featured on rides and it was not a 351 it was a 428 or 429.

yeah, original Ford called it the test mule, but eventually running the idea of a n/a v-10 as an option for the new cobra power plant. Trying to make it economical but didnt work out quite to plan. It would of been pretty cool... but they did great w/ the Shelby GT 500
