His web address is www.shelbyamerican.com. Last I read he was building a
beefed-up aluminum 427 from scratch, mainly reworking the oiling system. Then he
went to Chrysler to do the Series 1. Haven't heard much since then.

It sounds like you're asking what computer
Caroll Shelby used?
As I understand it Ford built the cars then they were modified
at Shelby's company, Shelby American, in L.A. You might try asking
the Los Angeles Shelby American Automobile Club,http://www.lasaac.org/
or ask at Carroll Shelby official web page,http://www.carrollshelby.com/
Does Shelby still have a company (for cars that is, not chili mix)?
I cold-called the company about 10 years ago (when we were both building turbo
Chrysler L-cars) with some questions about intercoolers and was immediately
connected to a friendly engineer who was happy to shoot the breeze. Very nice
folks, I'm sure they'd be just as happy to talk about their old CAD systems,
assuming they haven't all been laid off by now...
