My plan was a Nissan RB25 out of a 2wd Skyline with the factory manual transmission. Nissan "burger" badges on the front and rear in place of the Shelby or AC badges. It's a replica, do something fun.

For a Bullitt reconstruction/replica It should be a FE 390.

I was talking about my ideas for a Cobra replica, not a Bullit inspired Mustang. Mustangs don't really interest me, Capri's do.

I guess if I want to build a 289 Street I need a 289
