RE: 427 Cammer |

I too had a crate engine at one time and it cost half that. Well.. connections did help, LOL! I still have the "virgin" manual that came with it and never let anybody borrow it as I lent out a lot of manuals and literature to hundreds of people years ago to educate them and some never made it back. I have never owned a repro anything in my collection, whether it be parts or literature and am agast at what these crooks charge for anything. They ruin it for the rest of the hobbiests that otherwise would enjoy it and cant. I do remember the first Cammer's had the spark plugs going in from the bottom of the valve covers and used a different intake manifold and were not side oiler's to boot. Mickey Thompson (RIP) had about 250 or so lined up at his place at one time. Sure would have been nice to get some of those! A friend was on "Fast Eddie's" crew and had some good stories. I was in negotiations with George Montgomery to buy some stuff when he switched to Boss 9 power in the Malco Gasser Mustang but fell through. I can tell you it was quite a thrill to see him on the big end with 2 turbo's on that thing! |
