Thanks for the clarification.

So the 1968 427 was a true sideoiler.

It's been only the past couple months that I've fully understood the unique hydraulic 427 oiling system. Your cam info now makes sense.

One more correction from my previous post is: I mentioned the head castings, block castings, and intake castings were the same, but I failed to mention I was specifically comparing the 390GT and 390 non-GT. While the head castings and intake castings were common to all FE cars during the GT years, whether 352, 390, 410, 428, or 428PI, the block castings did differ between the 352, the 390/410, 428, and 428PI, even though they were all marked pretty much the same on the outside. The C6ME or C6ME-A marking does not indicate the sand cores used to cast the block.

Shoe.
