kit cobras

The cobra kit is the most popular kit on the market as many people know. Some people want the all powerful big block. Others prefer the small block. I have talked to some people to find out what is best for road worthiness, cornering and handling. Most agreed that the big block has more problems staying on the road upon cornering, due to a huge amount of push on the front end. Although thy like the straight line acceleration the cornering problem of the big block makes the small block seem more attractive for them. The small block may not have the gusto of the big block but the cornering capability is much improved. Don't forget you can build a small block to well over 400 HP with little effort. With that much power you won't miss the big block, plus with full at this price a small block will get better mileage.

kit cars

Have any of you ever built a kit car? Well I have not, but I shirr would like to build the ultimate kit car, the GTM. Factory five GTM is about as ultimate as it gets. The proformance numbers are nothing short of OH MY GOD. 0-60 mph in 3.2sec. All that bult in your garage. There are other kit cars that are more affortable, such as the 65 Coupe. ($15,000) The GTM is about $20,000 for the kit, plus the doner corvett. A 65 Coupe is a pure spots car. If any one has built any kit cars the plees tell us about it.

thanks, JAY
