differences between 427 FIA and SC cars
All I know is what I've read in the Original AC Ace and Cobra restorers guide. That resource lists the SC cars as having side pipes, hood scoops, and drivers rollover bar. To quote Rinsey Mills "Both the side pipes and the roll bar should be black, not chrome." As I remember he said something to the effect- Shelby only put black pipes on these cars, other colors or chrome was done by the owners after delivery and is not correct regarding originality. The intake manifolds were I think steel rather than aluminum and the compression was lowered, as well as the carburation was changed from a twin to a single Holley. The SC cars did have the huge FIA 32 gallon fuel tank, which left very little to no trunk available.
