    Thanks I will. As far as missing a gear,its cetainly possible lol. I sometimes wish I hadn't switched over to 4spd. It seems it was quicker with C-6 with shift kit and 2,000 stall. It comes off the line like a bat out of hell with 4spd but always stumbles as I search for traction. It only does it in first gear after that I'm gone. Just hooked 200 shot of NOS but doubt I'll use it as I haven't tested it . But the stick shift is kool and I catch rubber in all 4 gears just like the Little Duece Coupe. Its alot of fun and when have you seen one in a LTD. I may at some point switch to 4spd auto?
    I cloned it as a Cobra cause if you look at real Cobras 1968-69 they have same trunk,tail lights bumpers and nose as LTD. Roof,hood and fenders are different. I first thought I would use 1969 Shelby hoodscoop and rear wing but they seemed a bit narrow on this big beast. Ended up using Boss429 hoodscoop and Mercury Cyclone wing.
