1965 SHELBY COBRA

Introducing the 1965 Shelby Cobra SC, a true marvel meticulously crafted to embody raw power and performance. Under the hood lies a beastly 390 FE period-correct block, now enlarged to a robust 417 CID, paired with 390 HiPo heads for optimal combustion. Fueling this powerhouse is a 750 CFM Double Pump Holley carburetor sitting atop an Edelbrock RPM Performer intake manifold, ensuring a steady flow of fuel to feed the roaring engine. Igniting the spark is a Pertronixs electronic ignition system, delivering precise timing for maximum efficiency.For cooling and lubrication, this Cobra boasts a Cobra frame-mounted remote oil cooler, remote oil filter, and a cast aluminum 7.5-quart oil pan, ensuring optimal engine performance even under demanding conditions. Starting the engine is a breeze thanks to the Tilton super starter, while polished aluminum 427 valve covers and a Cobra oval air cleaner add a touch of elegance to the powerplant.Paired with a Ford Toploader close-ratio 4-speed transmission controlled by a Hurst Competition Plus shifter, shifting gears is a joy, made even smoother by the McLeod hydraulic throw-out bearing. Custom-built tubular headers with silver ceramic side pipes not only enhance performance but also add a distinctive aesthetic touch.
