RE: FE vs 385 |

Another area the 427 stood out was in endurance boat racing in the 60s. Races like the Salton Sea 500 and the Parker 9hr Enduro the 427 was practally unbeatable. There is no tougher racing and harder on an engine than boat racing. However don't sell the 385 short, it is a very tough engine and will stand up to just about any type of abuse you can put it thru. Its too bad that the factory didn't put the R&D into it like they did the FE. Its only taken 15-20 years but the 385 has reached a level of development that far surpasses the FE in torque and horsepower without giving up reliablity. |
