| Got my 427 blueprints...........THANKS DAVE |

These are the wartime documents that show changes in the 427 design, necessary to keep the engine competitive. Not all that "glamorous", but verrrrry interesting and historic.
I'm in the design and construction business, and I'm familiar with the process of how documents eventually turn into buildings and systems.
These engineering drawings were intended to form liquid metal to reach an eventual goal, and that was to put another "W" on the wall of Henry Ford's wall. I'm kinda glad the guy had a big ego, and a big pocketbook.................. (Henry, thanks for spending all that doe.......we're still enjoying it many years later)!
The docs are obviously very technical in nature, and I'm still finding interesting things they did. When you start with a blank sheet of paper, it is quite remarkable how the design eventyally concluded, with all of the refinements (like these) along the way. Thanks again Dave, (for being the...cough, cough, high bidder, and ) for sharing this information with the rest of us.
