[pawel427]

Hi,
I'm new on this forum.
I decided to build Cobra 427 not from kit but from plans, blueprints etc.
First of all I bought Blueprints from cobrarestorers.com. I hope its a good start. Thus, i have few question meybe lot of them are funny but i want to be sure before i'll start.

What differential should I use to mount it into the frame made from cobrarestorers.com blueprints ? Any link ? photo ?
I see on pictures that all of builders changes the differential brackets/holders.
How to adapte other suspension or differ ?
Do you have any drawings with changes. Maybe for sell ?

Is original/genine differential is unavailble ?
What suspension , any shops , links except cobrarestorers.com ?

I'll use probably 427 engine.

Pls help
Thanks for all.
Paul

Hello Paul & welcome.
The original rear end was a Salisbury IRS. I would build one with your plans and look at all of the Kirkham's you can to go by.

The frame is of course a round tube.

Engine either a 428 FE (in all street Cobras)
Or the 427 side oiler. You can buy a old block or complete engine or check out these new iron or aluminum blocks from Pond or Genesis.
