Default Shamrock Cobra

Hello Guys,

I have a 15 year old Shamrock Cobra that I imported from South Africa and have just rebuilt my 010 Block 350 with new Sportsman II heads with a Killer cam. I was told that this combination is producing about 430hp and to tell you the truth, I believe it really does. It will actually suck your eyeballs out from 4K rpm up. My Shamrock uses a Jaguar IRS rearend and Jag front running components. With the new heads and balancing the rotating assembly with new pistons, etc. I only have about $2200 in the rebuild. I also have a 5 speed Toyota transmission and it shifts like butter. Its hard to beat the chevy engine and the sound is killer. I loved this Shamrock so much that me and my brother decided to start importing the rolling chassis for everyone else to enjoy and you can check out our web site at:

Thanks guys,
John C.

ps. Check out the centerfold of Kit Car Builder Magazine in the December issue if you get it. Jim Youngs did a great story on Shamrock Autocraft USA, Inc
