Reading the YouTube comments there’s lots of debate about which 7 engines they picked, and those they didn’t. But there’s no debate about Doug's Mustang deserving to be there.  :D

Umm, no, Heo. I had no idea that video existed. I'm not sure how I feel about them using parts of my videos. No harm done, I guess. At least they actually got it right, because it is a 427, and all Ford.

It made me laugh about all the comments on the 300 I6. I wasn't sure how many people liked that engine, but IMO, it is probably the most dependable engine they every made, except for possibly the 7.3 Diesel. But I think they were after more sporty engines.

I just stumbled on that video was looking on some video about Kaase and this came up next. So i thought
i could see it and then ...hmmm recognice  that car and the cabover in the background. I saw it was your
video so i tell you

Hey, lookie how Doug casually obliterates the posted speed limit!! Good thing he did this across the Mexican border so the Yankee Polizei can't touch him!!

Yes our Doug is no scofflaw... "closed course , professional driver, do not attempt this at home".
I think the 289's they chose were obnoxious sounding rather than good, but certainly those engines are right up there for "greatest".

I don't know about the professional part, but as for the "no scofflaw"....since that was not a question, it doesn't require a response (or denial).

The common thread on that video is that it starts and ends with an FE. As all things should.  :)

That last video is mine from 10 yrs ago.

So there are 2 forum members on there, both with FE's. That's cool.
I have to say, that guy with the Boss 9 sure isn't afraid to let it rip!
