That's a stunning paint job. Does that shade of red have a name?
Yeah it's called Nightfire red (pearlescent)
Not sure which shade though, there are 3 and they are all very similar.

It's a TVR block (Rover) not a Ford engine, originally a 3.5L V8, then we put a 5.0L in it and now a 5.4L.
All based on the same block.
The rocker covers are missleading.
My dad built the car by the way.
Just goes to show that you can't know an engine by looking at it. How those valve covers fit a set or TVR heads I'll never know.
They have been adapted and barely fit. The plenum is the main give away that it is a rover block.
The fact the distributor wasn't up front made me wonder. 3.5L V8 is PUNY though. Around my area 5.8L-7.5L are the commons with the occasional 5.0.
Yeah when we 1st got it on the road it has 180BHP with the 3.5L...
Now it has close to 500BHP which is a lot when it only weighs around a tonne.
Gotta be fast as hell.
My dads car, not mine but thought i'd post it as you may be interested.
It's a Dax Tojeiro, (AC Cobra Replica) with a 5.4L Supercharged V8 engine.
"That's a very nice car you have there, it would be a shame if something were to happen to it"
(Most people probably won't get this though. )
Im literally about to take a MKIV around the ring on GT5, so touch the Cobra and it goes straight into a wall.
It was a Yogscast reference, but I don't think many people here follow it.
Beautiful cobra Dax! My father would be jealous of your dad. He's been wanting one of those for a long time.

Why did you even say you could "tell" it was a "302" or "427" (how does an FE look anything like a small block btw?) when there's an alternator in the way of where a dizzy would be on a Ford?
