All Ford cast crankshafts were nodular iron

By Royce - 04/23/2005 8:55:56 AM; IP 4.224.36.38

Just to be clear, the 427 cast cranks were made of the same nodular iron as any 6 cylinder 170 CI crank. I think the grooved mains were used on any 390 at the same time as 427's received them. Remember the 390 was still considered a premium high performance motor in 1963 - 64.
