427

[MeanGene]

Choices, choices... Just got a set of FPA headers for a long deal from a friend, so I'm pretty committed- and I just love my 427's... Gotta keep my governor on and do a mild one, so I can drive it a little- the mileage on this one with a 4K converter and 5.14's doesn't even compute 



So for this one-





Also just got a cherry set of original ALGON adjustable nozzles, and I already have pretty much the whole original setup, needle-type control (instead of a barrel) valve, aircraft pump, even the cast front cover with pump drive- but that should go on the Galaxie. Still, if I had another hood... So I'm thinking that cherry 324/500 cam out of a boat engine, and my Bird 6V setup- and the air cleaner just happens to have been trimmed at the back at some point, which seems to be a tight clearance area in a 57, so I wouldn't have to cut one. Also have a set of those sweet polished aluminum boat "spark arresters" that could spend some time on there. Got a couple sets of original chrome baldie covers, so the set with the breathers could go on there. And the pickup 3spd w/OD toploader for a little mileage. Still thinking..

If I had that wagon,,, and some 427's in the shop, there would be some sweet music coming from the pipes on that ride.

Don't think you'll get to many arguements on that.

I don't know which one I'd like more. A 427 or that SD.
