There are few cars as iconic or as instantly recognizable as the 427 Shelby Cobra. With their proper racing pedigree and beautiful styling, they have been very highly sought after by collectors and performance enthusiasts alike. This Factory Five 1965 Shelby 427 Cobra is an excellent example of how these replicas are supposed to be built. No donor parts were used in the build of this excellent example. Powering this Cobra is an electronically fuel-injected 347 cubic inch stroker V8. The engine started out as a custom CNC’d 331 cubic inch Pro Bullet short block with polished forged rods, forged DSS pistons and Chromoly piston rings. The engine was then upgraded with a 347 stroker crank, a Comp Cams Xtreme Energy 232/240 hydraulic roller cam, Trickflow Twisted Wedge aluminum heads, underdrive pulleys and 75mm throttle body. Transferring the power to the Ford 8.8″ rearend is a Tremec TR3550 5 speed manual transmission equipped with a Steeda Tri-Ax short throw shifter that was purchased new for this build. The Ford rearend houses a Motive 3:55 final drive gear set. This potent combination was dyno’d at 387 RWHP and 376 RWTQ. Both the engine and transmission perform excellent. Delivering that thunderous V8 sound are the Factory Five 427 style headers and side pipes. The Black exterior with painted Silver stripes in excellent condition with no major defects to note. The Black leather interior is in excellent condition with little to no wear present. The interior has been finished with a period style look with the bomber style buckets and dash filled with Auto Meter gauges. Another detail to add is the very well placed pedals. The suspension has been nicely completed with a custom 4-link rear, front/rear anti-sway bars, and tubular control arms. These upgrades in combination with the Toyo Proxes tires allow this Cobra to handle the road very well. Bring this gorgeous Cobra to a stop is a 4-wheel disc brake kit by Wilwood Brakes. Everything about this Factory Five 427 Cobra just screams quality. You will understand how much time and effort was invested once you take a look and drive this fantastic example of a 427 Cobra replica.
