A 68 427?? where? Is this a 'non' produced motor/car?
The boss9 was rated at 375, but everyone knows that was BS.

Yes...they were rated with no accessories.
That's why I love the K-codes...you couldn't get accessories..HA!

unless you think you can get traps in the mid 130's with it.
Racing in the winter is pointless here. Traction will never happen.

What part of GA you in? I was up in Warner Robbins for Thanksgiving and may be back up there for Christmas with my KB Cobra. If I am I will give you a shout and run them on those good GA roads.

I'm not gonna talk smack to unit cause it's stupid; he's in Michigan, but I WANT some of one of those Cobras. You guys love to pick on the N/A cars, let's see how how your power adder fares against another power adder. I haven't had the time to get the 12-bolt under the car yet, but I'd gladly roll from anywhere in 2nd or 3rd.
I haven't had mine on the dyno yet, but at 15.5psi you can be the

It would be cool to run some of these Cobra's on this site. I have a 68 Camaro that will run with a S/C 600 RWHP Cobra N/a. The 68 running N/A totaly Kicks the *** of the 01 Camaro in my sig even with a 150 shot. But If I did run one of these Cobra's, I promis I wont spray.

But like I said, he can take his pick of 5 mustangs...I have an 04 cobra, 92LX, 85GT and an 06 S281E. The E is scheduled to go to MI for some work next week, so it may be MIA until Feb/March.

I was only giving you Ford's reasoning/explenation as to why they code-named it that. I was not talking crap....common sense will tell you that.
