The 427 found in the front of Burton's `67 Cobra replicar is sort of a family heirloom--it was first installed in the family's flat-bottom race boat more than 15 years ago. It was bored .030, equipped with TRW 12.5:1 pop-up pistons, Norris camshaft, and an Accusump pre-oiling system. Up top, a pair of Holley 660-cfm carbs combine the go-juice and nitrous mix to feed a pair of Shelby aluminum heads. Ignition is managed by an MSD-based system that uses an adjustable rev-limiter and timing control. Exhaust exits through ceramic-coated headers made by Frank Arcis at WTB Muffler in Vista, CA.
