Private Classifieds / 67 Mercury Cougar with SOHC (Cammer) for sale
« on: September 15, 2026, 11:11:54 AM »
Due to age, I am selling my 67 Cougar with a SOHC (Cammer).  Asking 95k obo.  The craftsmanship, awards, drivability, and public attention is all smiles.  Many thanks to Jay Brown of this forum, Robert Pond, and the late Ed Pink for guidance building this exotic ford racing legend.  Visitors from around the US and Canada stop by my shop in Arizona just to see and talk about this 1 of 1 car.  A common suggestion I have considered is to make the Cammer more visible on a fixed or run stand and install one of the many other FE options in the car.  The best of both worlds if I were a bit younger.  My contact info, photos, video and build information for the Cougar and other cars can be viewed on my website -- klassickarsarizona.com

Looking for actual numbers from running engines.  Surely someone has hooked up a vacuum gauge to a Cammer.

FE Technical Forum / Cammer Vacuum Question
« on: November 09, 2019, 09:26:28 AM »
I am building a Cammer and plan to use an early Ford C6 transmission but have no idea how much manifold vacuum to expect for the shift modulator.  I want to avoid a manual shift valve body.  Using Pond block and heads, 11:1 compression, Comp street lift cams, original single carb intake with Holley HP.  What kind of vacuum numbers are you Cammer folks seeing out of similar builds?  Phil

Would like to buy a 427 sohc single 4 barrel intake for my current street build.  Surely there is at least one out there just collecting dust.  Could go with an aftermarket 2 x 4 setup, and they perform and look great, but prefer a single.   Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

FE Technical Forum / 460 vs 427 motor mount location
« on: January 28, 2019, 08:37:19 AM »
Are the ford 460 and 427 motor mount locations the same?  The length x width x height motor dimensions I have found online are very close.  I have an aftermarket set up with shock tower delete for a 427 in a 67 Cougar but now considering switching to a 460 build instead.

Bill Coon Steals Deposit

Bill Coon stole my $3000.00 deposit for a set of 427 SOHC (Cammer) heads.  After months of excuses I had to cancel the order but he won't return the deposit even though I have an invoice and cancelled check.  I have since learned this is a common business by Coon especially if you are located long distances from his shop in Romulus Michigan and the interstate costs to sue him.  As a small builder in the Phoenix area I have many many contacts and will be notifying every Cammer vendor, engine builder, magazine editor, major car auction and show promoter I can find.  All should be concerned this guy is killing interest in the Cammer.
