Default Anyone know this car?

1965 AC COBRA MARK II FACTORY FIVE CAR

I'm looking for a cobra for a customer and just curious if anyone in the club is familiar with this car?
The 1st one I did a ppi on didn't go well...haven't seen this one yet.
Thanks

Gordon might know, but I'd want to see a real chassis dyno sheet for the claimed 400HP out of the engine specs listed in the ad. if they exaggerate those, what else is a matter of falsehood?

Don't know the car. I'd think 400hp is pretty optimistic with such a mild cam. Other than the hood appearing to not fit well, it looks like a nice car, in the $30K-$35K range.

That cam is the CompCams FS XE262H-10. Combined with Performer RPM heads and 1.6 rockers, I'd say 400 FWHP is very possible in that engine; assuming the CR is 10 or better.

But there is no way it needs 1000CFM worth of carburetors.... One of those 500 Edelbrocks would have been more than adequate to feed that engine.

Extra carbs must make it look faster, I guess...
