Not really feeling it. It looks like it doesn't belong there at all but that's just me. That motor would have been better in a fox. Nice car either way

It doesn't make me mad, because it doesn't take away the fact that I own a Cobra. Would I have done the same thing? Absolutely not. Seems like a waste of a Terminator, like was stated earlier it looks like it belongs in a foxbody.
I just wanna ask why tho? If your doing racing then you either picked the wrong car or the wrong engine.
If I was going to stick a pushrod engine into a Cobra or New Edge Cobra then it would be a 557-605 Cid BBF with a massive set of twins. A 430cid, N/A, with a Carb seems like you just went backwards about two decades.
I agree with the others. Like Ironhand said you defiantly went back a couple decades. It would of gone over a little better if it was a v6 Mustang instead of a real Cobra.
Did you buy this car as a shell? If so, I can kind of sort of understand the push rod motor, but if you actually took out the 4.6 in good condition to put this motor in, I'm dumb founded. Not my style, I would've did this to a fox or a new edge non cobra but its your car.

ALRIGHT i just wanted to ruffle some peoples feathers , I bought the car for 3grand with a hit front end (salvage title) and had the pushrod. i was not about to put a ton of money in a salvage car so I went this route. Man you guys take ur terminators serious huh!
