A twin supercharged 427 Cobra!!

Sweet mother of G*d.

Is it a side oiler too? (I'd be surprised if it wasn't)

Yes, all of the actual 427s used by Shelby had side-oiler blocks (per the book Shelby's Wildlife. There were, or course, some big-block Cobras with 428s, which were top-oiler designs. You know that Shelby's personal car got all the top-shelf parts.
