How do you know from lifting up the hood??? Climbing underneath maybe. And then if you have a Pond, Genesus or Shelby block or any of the other aftermarket blocks it doesn't have a lot more relationship to a FoMoCo 427 SO than a 390/410/428. At least 428s actually were delivered in Cobras originally. Besides, with the exception of a few original Shelby produced cars in the hands of members here, the rest are all replicas.
