RE:427 the true bad boy??
By R Shannon - 10/28/2001 11:12:26 PM; IP 205.188.198.169
I'd start at the Flat head. Ford first V8s was flat heads (no overhead Valves) the next generation was the "Y" blocks 272s,292, and 312s. Now it gets confusing alittle About the time the FE can out the Merc's had the MELs 361s 430s. The FEs ran for a good 28 years. When from 332s in 58 to a real kick ass street 390 360HP in 60/61. other manufactures started upping the cubs in 61 (Chevy 409, poncho 421, and Mopars 413s) thus ford responded with the 406 A FE designed for racing. Again in 63 Cubic race continued (Bow tie 427 Mark IV, Mopar 426 wedge, poncho's no change due to their success on the NASCAR and Drag strip) Ford stepped up and introduced the 427 related but, unlike its cousins the rest of the FE family, O sure they look alike but thats where it ends. In 66 Ford introduce a less expensive more street freindly 428 which is a slightly bored and stroked 390 (nothing like the big bore shorter stoke 427 with the high dollar parts) Even though the 428 made a name for itself, in most racers and fans mines it's the 427 was the true bad boy of the FEs. To me the badA@@, best looking, and most sout after car is the 66/67 Fairlane 427 a stock, super stock, and current stock eliminator record holder in A/S and of course everybody knows what C. Shelby did with the ACE COBRA. This is just my opinion, I sure other will disagree.
