RE: 427 Cammer |

Hi Bill-
Just got back from the East coast. There have been several SOHC cobra replicas made. ERA replicas had one on their web site but it seems to be gone. Basically you'd have to put custom foot boxes on the body because of the width of those cammer heads. You'd also have a tough time putting the engine in unless you lifted the body from the chassis. The owners of the ones I've seen have reported lots of fun though! (...and a big tire budget)
For the money I'd probably lean towards an aluminum Shelby block. The weight off the front end will make a big difference in handling. I'm putiing my cammer into a big ole' '64 Galaxie so handling isn't a priority.
Good luck on your project. Sounds like a blast!!
-Bill |
