See web: johnragsdale.us for all specs and photos
Factory Five Racing took a digital rendering of Mr. Dick Smith's legendary original 427SC Shelby Cobra to· create the body of the 4th generation FFR Mk4, so the shape of the body is as the
or;iginal 198-mile per hour Cobra roadster that the great Dick Smith raced at Daytona and other road courses across the U.S. The sports car is loaded with the absolute best all-new parts. The chassis has independent front suspension and independent rear suspension with Koni coilover shocks at all four corners. In the cockpit, a Mato-Lita wood-rimmed steering wheel, just like the wheel used in original Cobras, handles the turning duties. Black leather seats hold the driver and lucky passenger in comfort and style, and the Simpson five-point safety harness system keeps the pilot and co-pilot safe. Under the hood there's a Dart Manufacturing 351 Windsor aluminum engine block topped by Dart's pro aluminum cylinder heads. Quarter Mile Performance Racing, a famous engine builder in Chatsworth, California, professionally built the engine with the finest auto components'·and created a 427 bored and stroked engine that makes 516-horsepower and 492 lb.-ft. of torque on the engine dyno. This prodigious race mill is backed by a Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed manual gearbox. You read it right! There's a 6-speed gearbox backing that lusty engine! When you're cruising the boulevards or terrorizing road courses on open track days, you'll be
getting looks, thumbs ups and smiles from everyone you pass! My Cobra replica is built with the best automotive components available. The car is registered SBl00 California legal.
