You know what I just hear?

"Whaaa whaaa whaaa, blah blah blah... I'm a pussy, I don't want 500+hp cuz of a carburator... I have to stay legal... whaa whaa whaa... boats are cool... blah blah blah..."



BTW: there's a 600hp version of that motor too...

Oh, and that new high-tech 5.0 cammer motor rocks! 400hp, 32v DOHC EFI modular V8... it was the motor for the current cobra before they decided to go forced-induction.
