Can't consider a half dozen or so hand built outside the factory to be production for anything so basically these are just aftermarket engines that nobody wanted . And while these mythical monsters did make some HP...I read they were engineering night mares as far as the valve gear and the 20 foot long timing chains went and were said to have not been able handle a 500 mile NASCAR race. The way I see it , if these cammer things were so great, then Ford engines would be powering ALL top fuel cars for the last 50 years. We all know where that went...can you say HEMI???

NASCAR knew these engines were going to be too fast for safety on their tracks. So they banned both engines. After that Ford quit on the engine, even though the likes of Dyno Don, Don Prudrohme & others were racing the engines in NHRA. The guys that were using it in T/F ended up switching to other engines. While in use, they were very competitive! Too bad Ford quit on this remarkable engine. With Pete developing that gear drive,who knows how dependable it would've been?

    TIM WEAVER Jersey about the 427 SOHC or the medium/high risers 427, the only difference in SOHC 427 is the top end, Hemispherical heads w overhead cam, the bottom ends are identical, all FE blocks from 330/332 all the way to 428 all the same block only different bore and stroke. The 406, 410 and 427 medium/high risers were all built to race lemans, these blocks inparticular had reinforced webbing on the block, reinforced main caps, reinforced webbing on rods as well as specialized rod cap bolts. These FE engines were bulletproof, I have been an FE fanatic since my early teens, I learned a lot about the racing wars in the 60s between Ford, GM and Mopar..

    James Sawchuk GM really banded it, like they did Chrysler in 69-70 as the story goes. However, chassis and engines were changing so the real thing that killed it was Ford. $$$ to MFG and Family affairs cost Ford so they pulled out of domestic racing with the exception of Nascar. Too bad Nascar isn't really stock cars. I would be curious how things play out now. The Current Coyote is all Ford Cammer mated with DOHC Cosworth.

When France banned the Hemi,Chrysler withdrew it's factory teams...and as a result,Nascar almost went broke...Something France never forgave Chrysler for. Chrysler came out with the Street Hemi in 66,thus allowing the engine to be used in Nascar again. NOT because France had Petty's dick in his mouth?...Don't know where you got bullshit from.
