If you want to buy a used kit DAX 427 kit car with a V8 engine they cost about £50,000 - they have the best quality finish. If you built it from a kit it would cost about £35,000. Kits are from JK Sports Cars. At the bottom end of the range you have the Pilgrim Sumo is another kit car Cobra replica, from Pilgrim motorsports. It's not as good as the DAX (they don't use chrome brightwork). You can get one of those used, with a small engine for £20,000 - looks the part but doesn't sound the part. You gets what ya pays for.

In fact the Factory Five cars are done with the specs of the real car by a program written for Factory Five by Hewlet Packard. The aluminum cars were Henry Ford's to miff the fiberglass Corvette of Chevrolet, per the book " Go Like Hell". Shelby preferred fiberglass over aluminum, because it is lighter and easier to work with. Aluminum is harder to paint, like Acura's NSX. Factory Five makes a great car at a great price and is really into racing.they are great cars in the 351 Windsor or the 427 Windsor. The side oilers are hard to find are usually only good for racing. The 289 is good or the 302, but the 5.8 liter 351 Windsor is the perfect match in indigo blue with white strips #98 Shelby's favorite number. Dick Smith's car in Riverside, Ca. went 198. 47 miles per hour.

If I got to choose and 200k is my budget because AC Cobra is the only car I ever want, it definitely be gunmetal color, no stripe, 22 inch halley wheel with 5 inch machine polish and gunmetal spokes. Tubbed rear quarters for 22 - 20 wheel for traction. Light brown with new audi stitching pattern interior with multicolored glowing can be adjustable by phone. All gauges in center console with 12 inches ipad to support all engine dianogstic and music and internet. I know this is not usual cobra fans care about, but if I'm daily my cobra I would want nice sound system. 6-9 center dash, Doors- tweeters - 8 inches mids Back center - 12 inches free air sub and 6-9 8 channels 2000 watts amp, with 10,000 ways to adjust EQ on ipad. Engine- mustang GT 350 flat crank rev to 8k paddle shift (sacrelegous I know lol) 600 whp 4wd, 4 wheel steering (that the first). Small thick light color wooden steering wheel with aluminum spokes to match with all aluminum speakers covers. Suspension- air Underneath- all buttons up with skid plates. Rear - diffuser but rounded off to match with body line. Red diffusers fins to abstract the gunmetal color. Exhausts - titanium and copper Fenders- vented for brakes cooler Front- carbon fiber splitter Hood- aston Martin vents on 2 side (real vent) Brakes- cross drill 15 inch 6 calibers Light - LED Blue , fog light amber, taillight. Btw I want bench bucket massage seats ( bench seats with two dips on both side) you know what that for lol. Frame- strongest frame I know most of you would say wtf that is not pure, that's not real.

A lot of comments here as to why someone would put a GM motor in the cobra. Years ago I knew somebody that built cobra replicas and put Chevy motors in them because he said they had a better power to weight ratio and so handled much better. Also at the time (mid 90’s) it was much much cheaper to get power out of a Chevy than a Ford but I have no idea what it’s like now.

Todd Johnson, Don't some people realize that Shelby first wanted to buy engines from Chevrolet, but Chevy turned him down, so Ford was his 2nd choice !!! All of these home built kit cars, Ford Motor Company has nothing at all to do with them . Why should hobbyists have a "life sentence" and have to install a Ford motor in their cars if they really prefer another brand ?? Not every Cobra owner gets on their knees and worships FOMOCO . I guarantee you, back in the day, if Shelby had his choice between a 60 year old technology , 700+ lbs 427FE, 5500 rpm motor, or and an all aluminum 400 lbs, 7000 rpm LS7 427, we all know which motor he'd pick . It's not a "crime against humanity", you are only thinking emotionally rather than what's a more technologically advanced power plant . Cheers

First off,I'm a diehard Ford man. BUT,in a replica car that you just want to DTSOF,GM cheap small high power weight to ratio SBC engines just make sense. You aren't rebuilding a classic car here. You just want a fun high powered relatively inexpensive engine to power it. Don't get me wrong,putting a 427 side oiler with screw-in freeze plugs and a crank-driven dry sump oil system would be cool,but only when you lift the hood to show it off. If you want to talk about about heartbreak,throw a rod and break the crank and destroy the block with a over-rev on a missed shift!(come on,we've all did that once or twice. That's why my Boss 351 has a factory rev limiter!) With a SBC under the hood,not the caliber of disaster of the FEL. Remember,,it's a REPLICA!,not a purist shrine to Carroll Shelby. (He wanted a SBC to start with but GM would not sell to him) The fun is in having a great performing car that didn't break the bank and is just as fast(or faster)than a FEL big heavy block engine.
