I have heard that early 67 GT-350 still used the COBRA oil pan. Is there any truth to that?
The early 67 gt350's did not use the cobra oil pan because of clearance issues with the powesteering brackets etc. There was a cobra oil pan on #0001 when I bought it with some modified P/S hose brackets . I kept it on it because it may have been something that was tried and didn't work . I traced back as far as 1971 which may or may not have been original because it was already old by then. In 1989 when I bought it I decided to error on the side of caution when i restored it. In the years to follow I have not found documentation one way or the other to substantiate the Cobra oil pan on #0001. I have owned a number of single and double digit 67's and examined many more none had a Cobra pan .
