MECHANICALS

Ford 302 V8 with aluminium heads, a mild cam and custom-made extractors. Running on high octane unleaded, with a medium riser inlet manifold and Motec fuel injection. This setup gives the car over 300hp on a chassis dyno.

The Cobra features a beautifully engineered Robnell space-frame chassis, a Kevlar body, and many OEM parts including original Smiths instruments, Halibrand pin drive wheels and spinners, an original Ford close-ratio 4-speed Top Loader gearbox, with the correct 427 gearstick. It also has the original handbrake lever, windscreen with sunvisors and wind deflectors, and stainless steel, satin black ceramic-coated pipes. The radiator is aluminium.

The interior is a faithful copy of a 427 SC in the finest quality Belgian leather. The door locks and door pockets are original and the footwell under the pedals has been deepened.

All fastenings are 316 stainless steel, except those that require extra high strength steel - like the diff carrier bolts, wishbone pins and steering components.

The mould for this Robnell body was taken straight off an original 427SC. The chassis was etch-primed, under-coated, sanded, undercoated, sanded etc, etc, then painted with four coats of 2-pack aliphatic polyurethane. The body is handlaid Kevlar, with all stress points double or triple laminated.

The scoop is aluminium and riveted to the bonnet in the original manner. The body has a 2-pack finish with a heavy coating of clear.

The suspension is Jaguar front and rear, with American Concourse West Industries billet aluminium lower control arms on the rear and six fully adjustable American Eagle coil-over shocks (two front, four rear). There are swaybars front and rear, and Girling (Jaguar) disc brakes, with separate front and rear master cylinders.
