That last pic of the three that Infletcher posted is of a 427 on the dyno. If my story is right they were to install this motor in a Ford GT but had it on the dyno for measurements and break-in. Put out 598 horse at 6K plus and close to that in torque. As I stood there, the tech was running up the revs and I thought "man, this things gonna blow!"... that was before he shot it up to just shy of 7K. What a glorious sound!!!!!!
The last pic of my two is of a georgous 427 on an engine stand. Cool stacks out the top. The caulking strip (which you can't really see) is immaculate and the whole thing is polished with bits of machined billet bolted on. Artwork for sure!
It was a spectacular day!
