    67 Super Snake Project

    Total Weight I was hoping it would be around 3200. The Aluminum engine should drop the weight a little (estimate ~200lbs), but I have added about 75 lbs of sound deadening/insulation (Lizard Skin Ceramic & Sound + Dynamat & Quality Heat Shield), 22 gal stainless fuel cell, coilover rear...

    67 Super Snake Project

    just did a Weight to HP calculation: The Corvette Z06 weighs in at 3132 lbs and has 500 HP, giving it a Weight to HP conversion of 6.27 lb/hp. The Ferrari Enzo weighs in at 3009 lbs and 660 HP, giving it a weight to HP conversion of 4.56 lb/hp If my car weighs 3500 lbs. and 815 HP, my...

    67 Super Snake Project

    I was stewing about how I was going to get those dowel pins out without hurting that aluminum block. So I designed a dowel pin puller out of a piece of pipe, a grade 8 bolt, nut and two washers. With a little welding it worked great. Anybody that has a Shelby/Aluminum block take note. They were...

    Front Lights Been working on the wiring. The front end is almost complete. All the lights are in position, wired, working and aligned (as well I can with them pointing at the garage door).

    Bell Housing The bell housing is a big problem. The dowel pins in the block are very tight. I called Keith Craft and he told me that he had a kit and I did not need to remove those dowels. Got the kit, it includes longer dowel pins and a larger washer that welds to the outside of the bell...

    67 Super Snake Project

    That console is a Shelby Authorized part. Unfortunatley UP is the only authorized dealer for it at this time. As far as I know, UP was goung to have 350 vendors selling their parts by early 2007. If they treat their vendors like they treat their customers, I can see why nobody wants to deal...

    The Reenmachine DOHC '67 Shelby Clone Convertible Progress

    It came with the switch plugs and a small harness. Guess it really doesn't need any more than that. But these switches are the best I (you) have found. I returned the ones I purchased from Jegs, as they were not even half the quality.

    Shelby Center Console The gauge mounting holes were already there and fit perfectly. I purchased the console through Unique Performance. But I would rather have a non GT500E console than to deal with UP again.

    Supercharger Kit For an FE??

    You are not kidding about the nickel & dime! I added the boost referenced pressure regulator. My timing is set at 38 degrees, and I am using the MSD 7530T to retard the timing 1 degree per pound of boost. I have a Ricks Automotive 22 gal tank with an Aeromotive 1000 in tank fuel pump. And...

    Emergency Brake Cable Housing Mount

    No. I'm going with stock 67 pull handle and cable. I just don't have a picture of the stock bracket the upper cable housing mounts in to. Upper and lower pictures would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Supercharger Kit For an FE??

    That is an open ended question. S/C can be done for about $2500-$3500. But.... you really should have a tight (new parts) engine to handle the increased stress on all the components. Also, a lower compression ration (preferably 8.5:1 maybe a little more, I am not the guru). But you start...

    Supercharger Kit For an FE??

    Me too. I looked everywhere. Not many people are doing FE's with S/C. Very expensive.
