Professionally constructed, engineered, and developed by Harrison Auto Dynamics of Phoenix, AZ, this Cobra was built to comply with SCCA Super Production (SP) class for production based and replica cars. Any modifications to chassis, engine, drive train, and body work are allowed in what is for all intents and purposes an unlimited race class. It has been campaigned mainly at Phoenix International and Firebird Raceways, with appearances at Limerock, New Hampshire, and Sears Point. It would also be the 800 lb. gorilla at a track day event.
Chassis
This project started with a Hitech chassis, a fairly accurate reproduction of the original 427 cobra. Approximately 100ft. of additional steel tubing was added to the frame for increased stiffness and to comply with SCCA safety regulations. The rear suspension is standard 427 cobra with the exception of revised shock mounting points to give a 1:1 motion ratio. The front suspension is completely redesigned and is a pushrod type. Ohlins double adjustable shocks and Eibach springs are used front and rear.
Body
The body work was made by Arizona Prototype and consists of individual carbon fiber panels easily removed for accessibility. Complete molds for the body are included.
Engine
The engine is a freshly built Carroll Shelby FE aluminum block 427 that now displaces 497 cubic inches. Bore is 4.31 and stroke is 4.25.
