Dude I'm European. I've never bin so excited to get up at 02.00 in the morning to see this car. Shit it's 19:56 p.m. in Denmark right now but I'm gonna stay up for this one!. Nothing beats V8+Side pipes. Shelby GT 500, Shelby Cobra, Nascars I don't care! They just sound like rattling 2 roaring male lions in a tin can. And THEN they rev it! Can't wait!
@@jd39046 I believe that the country Sweden is the most concentrated in American muscle cars, only beaten by the US itself... Oh yeah we like 'em alright! 😀
I’m sure a motor made for one ton trucks feels like an absolute torque monster in that little go cart! I love the exhaust, not too loud and obnoxious, just enough tone when you’re on it and a few fun little pops when u get off it.
The first time I took notice of the Shelby Cobras was in the mid 60s when I was a kid in grade school and my brother put together a model car of the Cobra.
I fell in love with both the 911 and cobra from that movie. And then that same year, 1995, I saw 2 badass cobras at the Woodward dream cruise in Michigan.
Superformance makes great cars. I have more than 22,000 miles on my GT40 MKI. My only complaint is Superformance's complete lack of after-sales support. There is no meaningful documentation on vehicle maintenance. If you're not an experienced mechanic or have access to a shop that knows Superformance products, you're out of luck.
@@CobraEuphoria it is awesome. Only got 800 miles out of it this summer because of schedule but loved every minute. Hate to put her away for the winter
My old stomping grounds "Lake Forest" my old church also was walking distance from Superformance and it was always a treat to see hot rides like this peak out every now and then!
I was just driving my 7.3 2022 F250 single cab and it occurred to me that I'd love this engine in a cobra replica. This thing is fun in a big heavy truck. It seems perfect for a cobra even in stock tune which would be more net power than the original. So I came in and found this video.
I think if I had a Shelby Cobra Clone, I'd have to put a Ford 427 Boss, or 427R (Roush) in it.. they cost $15000+, but it'd be a little more OG, and 530-550 hp stock. I'm sure a few of the Cobras that are in the background of that shop are outfitted with the 427! Either way, this 7.3l Cobra is a true monster, I bet that thing is wicked fun and turns heads everywhere it goes. Awesome unit.
Nice job Ethan on showing the car. Shawn I’ve never seen you like this with any other car. You clearly enjoyed the driving of this car a TON. The color scheme is definitely unique. Shawn you should get one. Maybe not the 225k one, but you should get one.

I have a 7.3 Godzilla with headers, dual exhaust and a 5 Star tune in my Super Duty....love it and its used daily for towing my heavy equipment into jobsites and tows a 16k boat. I want a 7.3 S.P. Cobra next year as my retirement car. Carroll was brilliant when he invented this car.
Wow! The video worth the wait! The car is a gem. Congrats to the owner! Hope he puts it to good use, including some outings to the track. I’m picturing in my mind that Cobra and the Vicious Mustang having fun at Laguna Seca! 🤩
The Cobra was and always will be a beautiful car on every level. Horsepower, breathtaking body curves and neck snapping performance. Everything converged to create the perfect car.
Love the Cobra and plan to build a “replica” here in my country! But like many new versions of it I’m not shooting for an exact copy, but a restomod with a modern Ford V8 engine and transmission, CF race seats and other parts, modern chassis, independent suspension and 18” wheels. Kind of the new AC Cobra launched last year. About the engine, after reading a few books and watch God knows how many videos, I found there’s a catch: although we all love the big 427 engine, race drivers of the day hated the upgrade from the 289, because it wrecked the handling of the car. Also, with such a short wheelbase, the immense torque of the 427 at low rpm is responsible for most of the spins and crashes with the Cobra when the driver gets too excited. So, it’s something to think about🧐. Can’t wait for the video! Thanks, Shawn!
That level of torque is a lot to deal with. This Godzilla makes around 600 hp so I was very mild driving it but such a fun experience. I really need one of these
They do tend to want to swap ends for sure. I rode in a buddies CSX a few years back. It had the aluminum block ~485 ci, 580 HP stroker FE. It was a total animal and would just annihilate the road race rear tires.
Mar, think about this, the last years of the true AC Ace's before Carroll Shelby contacted AC to drop a 289 and then a 427 into them to make them Cobra's, they had the AC Ace Ruddspeed with a Ford Zephyr derived 2.6L I6 with a rack of SU's or Webber's hanging off the side.... how about my idea, a Ford Barra 195 I6 with some headwork, higher compression, and a rack of ITB's making in excess of 300hp....300hp is literally nothing as they make close to that stock the 195's at 261hp and 288lb-ft, depending on the headwork and tune, you'd probably be easily able to surpass 400hp without real effort, and both having the closest to "original" as all the AC's of this "model" had I6's until Carrol, and the most unique as I know nobody nor have seen anyone ever show they've put the infamous Barra I6 in one.... literally win-win 👌

Great Crate Motor, built for trucks so it's not high buck, like a 5.0, super modern heads, light weigh castings, torque curve like a pool table. What a great combo!
This might be one of my dream project cars. It’s just so sad that high power engines are so expensive, I might as well see if it’s worth it to make my own
Thank you so much for this awesome insight! Also, my super-cool father programmed the ECU for this motor. Makes a girl feel all tingly with pride when it roars away.
I'm not a big fan of Cobra cars. But this one right here is so great. Build with passion, big engine in it and finish on another level. Great episode. Greetings
The 30th anniversary of a car based on a 60 year old car. When a car that's awesome enough to have an anniversary edition has a separate yet identical car being made in its image and likeness and to its specifications for long enough to have it's own anniversary it had to start with a really really special car!

Man that's one beautiful shop and car. I love Superformance rendition of the Cobra with the modern aero work. If I hit the lotto, I want one in dark grey like the one behind it, with the same color stripes. Dude, it's 55F and you're complaining? It's 26F right now with a high of 40F mid day, which is pretty damn warm for us. Then it's going to drop to 20F over night, better than the 15-17F we've been getting all weeknight. As I get older, the cold is brutal on the knees and back, especially when it's windy with wind chill in the single digits or in the negative. 55F in mid February would be lovely for us New England folks.
I hear you man!! Chris is such a great builder, but an even greater guy and friend. I've talked to him a few times and he's always super kind. I can't even imagine what a Ruffian Cobra would look like. Amazing I'm sure!
This is my new fav combo, always had to be a 7.3 motor. In the UK we can get these now in right drive through 'Clive Suttons' from Superformance. I'm saving hard and will be ordering one in the next 12 months. 👌👌
Great car of course, and this resto-mod with a 7.3 is pretty hefty and crazy and gorgeous. But, there is a much more Godzilla Cobra version out there, it is called the Weineck Cobra and was built in Germany, it has a 12.9 Ltr (780ci) engine and pushes out some 1200HP!
I have a mildly tuned Godzilla with a 10 speed auto in my F250. I hear the same exhaust notes a rpm. The torque is real for sure. What a beautiful example.
All that torque in something that weighs no more than a go-cart is just an automatic death trap. I love it.

Then it's going to drop to 20F over night, better than the 15-17F we've been getting all weeknight. As I get older, the cold is brutal on the knees and back, especially when it's windy with wind chill in the single digits or in the negative. 55F in mid February would be lovely for us New England folks.
Thing looks sick!
Side thought, wonder what a Ruffian Cobra would look like 🤔
I hear you man!! Chris is such a great builder, but an even greater guy and friend. I've talked to him a few times and he's always super kind. I can't even imagine what a Ruffian Cobra would look like. Amazing I'm sure!
What a killer car man. So badass.
That's a great sounding big block LS. Freakin gorgeous car.
That car is a work of art.
What an awesome toy this would be to have.
What a stunning work of art
Best chit on the net" autotopia LA raddest cars & in depth look at mechanical masterpieces, unlike no others , built not bought yup"
This is my new fav combo, always had to be a 7.3 motor. In the UK we can get these now in right drive through 'Clive Suttons' from Superformance. I'm saving hard and will be ordering one in the next 12 months. 👌👌
Great car of course, and this resto-mod with a 7.3 is pretty hefty and crazy and gorgeous. But, there is a much more Godzilla Cobra version out there, it is called the Weineck Cobra and was built in Germany, it has a 12.9 Ltr (780ci) engine and pushes out some 1200HP!
Wunderschönes Auto, mein Herz schlägt sofort höher❤️✌️
Sounds AWESOME!!! That has to be a BLAST to drive!! Love this car!!! ❤️😎✌️
Beautiful Car, and that bass exhaust tone just amazing. I love it, how much do I want one.....
I think a transaxle gearbox would be a worthwhile future upgrade to engineer.
