So without starting a hearsay sg fest. Has anyone had any first hand experience of buying from them?
Like i say i'm not advocating a witch hunt just honest personel experience. I have no axe to grind and wish them well. They allways have somthing for sale, so someone must have bought something.

Ive never bought anything from them but spoke to daryl on many occasions where he has tryed to help me out and seem to be a very nice helpful guy. I wouldnt have any problems buying anything from them if there was something that was for me. Ive heard a couple of whispers but that could just be someone trying to have a go at someones and could risk destroying there buisness. I would have to try and get bit before i could agree. My opinion i would buy if i wanted what they were selling. yes

I have seen some VERY negative stuff on the Cobra forum about their product, Mike Huddart (a very renowned engine builder over here) does not have a lot of time for them, caution is advised, check CRC forum I think the thread is under "would you buy an engine from the USA?" thumbup

I happen to know that one of the 'Cobra' guys had a small block (406 cu in I think) built-up to his spec' by them - seemed a good engine - I think the HP figured claimed may have been optimistic (but arn't all the USA figures that way?)
