3170, your not the only one to have owned an original. Ive have a friend who owned his orginal till just a few years ago. His was 3282. A street cobra. It showed up with a 428 instead of the 427 and no top! Putting all that aside Id like to remind you that people come here to relax and lose their troubles talking about the cars they love. Lets leave all the angst at the door. We all experience enough of that in our day to day lives.
By the way here is what YOU posted on the orange 3050 thread when talking about his car.
"""" dual 4-barrels
They all did unless ordered differently""""
Cobra # 3170, THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. People did put in special orders and they were period correct. To say they werent bastardizes all those owners who went the xtra mile with their new original Cobra.

I was looking through Sports Car Graphic, 11/65, and it lists the comp engine as having aluminum Hi-Riser heads / intake, and a 780 cfm carb, not an 850 like was stated before. The comp car in the article appears to have a carb with mechanical secondaries, as there is no vacuum dashpot for the secondaries.
If I remember correctly, I had thought that I heard that Holley designed the 850 carb, with bigger throttle bores, for the '67 L88 vette. Like you said, maybe the 850 carb was out in 1964/65.
Anyways, here's the graph from weber I was eluding to earlier..
427 has about 875 cc per cylinder.

If you run across the Holley List # on the 850 carb, I'd be very interested to know the specific carb. Thanks.

Holley lists that carb as for a 65-67 427 Hi-Riser race engine, # 3255-1.
C5AF-9510-BE is listed by Holley as for a 65 427 Hi-Perf engine , # 3255
