1965 Shelby GT350
Items scrounged from Ford`s parts bins and fed into factory assembly program included a Borg Warner close-ratio four-speed, 11-inch front disc brakes, larger drums at the rear, and special bracing under the hood. The motors were stock 271-horsepower/289-cubic-inch V-8s that received Shelby's recipe of cast aluminum valve covers.
To aid weight balance, the battery was moved to the trunk. Engine output jumped to 306 horsepower at 6000 rpm, and the whole personality of the car began to evolve.
