RE: FEs Last in NASCAR

That's a tough question. Ford told all of the teams that were getting support, money and free parts as well as engineering info in the winter of 1970/71 at some meeting or another, that they would have to run the Boss engines to continue getting the same support. That is what killed the FE in the factory supported race efforts. The independant teams that didn't get any help ran whatever they could afford. Many bought up as much of the 427 and 396 engines and parts as they could, at give away prices. Do some research and you may be able to locate some of it still.
