It seems a travesty having a GM motor in a Cobra, even if a replica, but given the 'grunt' it has, we'll let it pass!!

As An Aside; there was a company that offered a conversion of Jaguar, XJR/XK8 & XKR, to a manual gearbox, using a Tremec 6-speed
I enquired...... out of curiosity (as you do..) when we had the XKR, there was certainly no change from £10,000!!!!

My Mum's feller has a real 427 Cobra and a Z28. They'll be in hibernarion now (his winter daily is a Granada, his summer daily Renault 25 V6 turbo) but if I go across ill snap a pic.

I owned a Mark 1 senator 2 and a half, hatmsome silhouette. An auto. It was getting pretty lacy underneath but looked decent enough on top. Very spacious, comfortable car. A Granada for people who aren't gits.
