Ford used the Thunderbird name the same way Chevy used the Corvette name (my 4 door 1956 Crown Vic has a "thunderbird badge on its front fenders). Including the 406 FE which wasn't even in a Thunderbird. Then Shelby made the Cobra and Ford called all its hot engines "Cobra", like the Cobra 289, Cobra Jet, etc.
