So let's run this to ground. Shelby bought 427's off of the Galaxie line for his CSX cars. Those would have been the 410HP 4V or 425HP 8V variety. I would like to hear how he got those engines to 480HP. Have any of the MR heads on CSX 427s that have been pulled later in life shown signs of being heavily worked? Did he re-cam them? Compression bump? What else?
