While Ford had previously offered a big-block V8 engine, the Cobra Jet 428-cubic-inch V8 made the Mustang a legitimate muscle car that could take on the best of the competition in a street race. The Cobra Jet V8 was the idea of leading Ford dealer Bob Tasca, who wanted a better engine for drag racing. In the tradition of the day, it was underrated at 335 horsepower, and was likely much more powerful; Hot Rod magazine pushed one to a 13.56-second quarter-mile. Cobra Jet, or "CJ," Mustangs went on to success in the National Hot Rod Association's Super Stock class.
