Here's the story on Shelby's new motor.
A fellow VMF'r and friend of mine by the name of Gary Roys, from Troy, Michigan
built this motor for his '65 Shelby (clone) and did all the work on it, tuning, dynoing
and installing it in his car. Shortly after installing the motor he found an original
289 Shelby motor, which had been freshly rebuilt that he wanted to put in his car
even more.
After seeing the Dyno sheets on this motor, I just had to have it or one like it for
my Shelby, so we talked, we negotiated and walla! It's mine.
Note: I use a 351W firing order (1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8)

Custom made fuel & NOS lines Custom fuel filter & resistor bracket
Custom alternator adjustment rod Pro Street Damper Jet Hot Hooker Headers
Custom Nitrous throttle switch Custom A/C brackets Pulley's all installed- finally!
Summit Billet aluminum valve covers
When I got these new valve covers I realized that they needed some crankcase venting breathers
and also a way to put oil in the motor.
So, I purchased a couple of billet breathers from our local
Loper's Automotive Speed Shop and drilled two holes in the covers for the breathers.
Completed and installed and running strong!
