You guys make it sound like only FORDS break, and CHEVYS don't. The fact is - THEY ALL BREAK !!!

P.S: With Cobra at least you'll have a strong rear-end that won't break the second you make it a 400 rwhp car

I have only had one thing break on my car, and that was the tailshaft housing on the transmission. Oh, and I ran 10s on the 10 bolt
