Nice.... :)And I thought I was the only FE in Super Gas car in the country with an FE . And the only one with 2.25 tubes . Guess header companies told you it wouldnt work ,same as me . I piked up 5 mph when changes headers w/o changing anything .Glad to see i,m not the only one doing this . Most people ask me if I have a chevy when I tell them its a 427 , I enjoy telling them Ford made a 427 3 yrs before chev.I use BBMs ported by Jeff Colvert with an old portasonic intake & a 850 QFT .Leave at 5000 & go through at 7200.Have to keep it down as its a stock hydraulic blk . I think it would have died already if the blok wasnt filled to water pump . Brent Lykins helped me when I was pulling insert outa the heads ,told me you need T&D race rockers . That turned out to be good advice . Ran 9.45 at 145 atb 4000 ft corrected 2 sundays ago .2 egt system said 1200 ,so I know theres a little left in it . That was with timing at 30 ,going to my old at 36 next time out .

You can take Brents advice to the bank every time , never steered me wrong & I never spent a dime with him yet .I bben using Valvoline since before they called it VR1, its the best in my opionion.

Hi, everyone. My name is Randy I’m new here, but have been reading your forum for a couple years. I just bought a 427so with tunnel port heads and 2x4 single plane manifold. It was a running engine until pulled and then sit for many years, I pulled it apart and here’s what I found...
Block J23 standard bore, .005 taper on 2 front bores, the rest were under .003
Crank C5ae 630 0 0 the bearings all looked good.
Rods C6AE-E polished std. bearings look good.
Pistons C8AX 6110A skirts show minor wear.
Heads C70E 609K look stock with a full “thumbprint “ no port work.
Intake C70E 94425A has a crappie weld on a bolt boss, otherwise looks stock.
I’m happy so far, but what do I do next?
I’ve been talking to Brent about options.
1. Build it back stock with new bearings, rings, cam, valve train etc.
2. Build a 482 with modern parts, hyd roller etc. shoot for 600ish HP.
3. Add ported tunnel port heads and manifold (around 650 to 700hp).
4. Sell it to someone who needs a vintage engine and start over?
