Anthony,

Yes, it has aluminum medium riser heads. Also an aluminum water pump and an aluminum harmonic balancer. With regard to my will, if my son ever learns to drive a stick, the car will go to him. But, if he doesn't want it, your next in line.

Byots,

I agree with your philosophy, it shouldn't make much difference who put Shelby's parts on Shelby's cars, as long as it was done properly. I suppose the effect on market value lurks in the back of my mind somewhere, but since I'm not going to sell it, why should I care. As to finding the original owner, if Ned has any info on csx 3316, I'd love to have it, but the Registry indicates that I am the only known owner. Speaking of the Registry, is the info in that thing pretty much Gospel? It says that the car was invoiced to a dealer in Arizona, but everything I know about the car indicates it spent its life in California. Even the "427 Chassis Manual" that came with the car had Vels Ford penciled on the first page. Vels was a Ford dealer in Calif. located very near Shelby's facilities in El Segundo.
