Default '67 Shelby slow build

I see light at the end of the tunnel! Drive train is finally in the garage and the car is on it's way to paint jail. Maybe I can join the fun starting next year.

I like your car, red was my next choice. I had a darker red s/st coupe and a white super gas mach-1 both with 427FE.
I'm a little concerned building a car for stock, hopefully it will be competitive in heads up races. It took about 10yr to accumulate the parts and spread out the cost. hence the "slow build"
Some build info - 428ci rated at 388hp. Blair Patrick specs and heads, Pettis Performance machine work and short block, Remac C-4, Holroyd carb, A-1, Open Tracker, Caltracs, MW, Strange, Wilwood, Centerline & FE Power.

Are we looking at a Stocker? I can find 355 and 390 hp ratings for the 428, but not the 388 you mention. Is this the large or small valve version? There is a 385 and a 395 hp in the SS factor list, though.

Thanks. My PC opens these docs in a spreadsheet that's hard to navigate.


More: .
A friend of mine has a 428 or 429 SCJ stick (not a Shelby) to compliment his T-U/SA Comet. Calls it his "10 second street car". How does Mike's engine differ from the later version of the BB Ford?
