Notes
FIA Homologation Form No. 220, effective January 2, 1966, specifies a hypoid final drive and limited-slip differential for the homologated 427 Cobra. The form leaves its final-drive ratio and tooth-count fields blank, so no ratio is inferred and the form does not establish the delivered assembly or current originality of an individual street, Competition, or S/C chassis.
