				 1965 Shelby GT350R Engine 
 Hey Everyone, I have a 66 mustang fastback that I'm slowly building into an exact 65 Shelby gt350 r model clone and I had a few questions.  
 Does anyone know the exact specs for the 65 gt350 r model 289 engine?  I want to build an engine as close to original as possible.
 
 Anyone with an R model 289 built, any major problems with this setup on the street?
 
 Is the 289 hipo used in the r model's the same as was used in 289 competition cobra's?  If so, this could aid in my search for 289 engine info.
 
 Thanks
 Brent
