FE Technical Forum / Why didn't Ford use a better camshaft in the 428 SCJ engines?
« on: June 09, 2022, 10:49:51 AM »
When the 428 CJ came about in mid 68 Ford just grabbed the old 390 4bbl GT cam and called it done. Maybe an okay choice for the general use with mild gears auto trans and A/C options.
However did they miss the boat a bit with the SCJ package ? If I remember they had a better camshaft specd out for the 50-100 cars that were built for NHRA class racing.
