"Thats right boys and girls, those dudes at GM are bringing back the 427!!!
A factory installed, Lingenfelter built 427 pushing out an ungodly 520 hp / 520 lb torque! Its all NA too. "
All I can say is wow. I am glad to see that the cobra is finally getting some real power (even if it is from a supercharger) but 520 HP NA is just outrageous for an American production car. I dont think cobras will be able to compete with vettes in performance. Like the wise man said there is no replacement for displacement. 4.6 vs. 7.0. I'll take the 7.0. Of course I know all of you will be screaming about the big price difference which is a valid point. But heres what it comes down to. If youve got the money go with the vette. Otherwise the cobra makes a great substitute but can never be as good as the vette when you compare apples to apples. But look out Viper. The vette is gonna give the Viper a serious run for its money. Overall Im not trying to bash any cars. I love American made muscle cars and I am glad that they are really beginning to have some serious muscle in them.
