It's true Shelby went to Chevy first for a engine, but Zora Duntov was the head of GM's Corvette division at the time and realized that it didn't make much sense to support a program to put a Corvette engine in a much lighter car. In the end it didn't make much difference, the Cobra was still bad news for the Corvettes and just about any other A Production race car.
