Ok

So now that I am just about done building my 427FE for my FFR cobra I wonder if I had the wrong info in trying to be origional! I am trying to replicate the 66 S/C

I have a 65 sideoiler, Holley 3300/3301 BC/BD carbs (origional), 65 iron MR heads and had to go with a Bluethunder MR aftermarket intake.

So talking with a guy today that worked on a lot of theses car in the day and has a wealth of knowledge, told me that the 427 cobras used a low rise intake with BJ/BK carbs and a 5 degree wedge under the carps to get the motor to fit under the hood..... The MR would be too tall

So my initial reaction was how does a low rise intake fit on MR heads? Also, my Shelby American Registry says the 427 S/C had BC/BD carbs

So, which was it? MR with BC/BD or low rise with BJ/BK like on the Galaxy 500's?
