Who says it needs to be a big V8 or go in the rear?

This is true. But I bet you could still shove one in there with some effort.

I've seen one with a front engine v8. Front end was stretched and roof chopped. I think it may have been one of Jesse james rides.

I stopped in his shop a couple weeks ago. Some really nice work going on there!

^^ Original Shelby "Cobra" (A/C Ace) had a 260 cid v8. That's not exactly big.

Yeah, because that's what the Brits out in it.

Then he shoved a 427 in it. And Shelby Cobras aren't exactly huge...

I love dogs; however, I can't eat one all at once.

^No. You think you know a lot more about everything than you really do. I hope I wasn't like you when I was 18 or 17 or whatever you are.

A/C sold the car with a 6 cylinder. Shelby took it and started swapping in 260 fords, then 289's, then moved on to 427's.

That's why you slice it up, and throw it in the food dryer with some seasonings.

DOG JERKY.

Huh, seems about right. Though I thought he started with the 289. Either way, it was awesome.
