Or just a stroked and bored stout 390. If you asked any of the FE builders around here to find a good 390 and then build it to perform "just like" the 1963/64 427 Side Oilers with the optional race cam in them they could do it in their sleep. Up the ante and tell them you want it just like the 427 MR, but as if you had asked for the optional K cam from the Ford parts counter (which you could do), and, I think, you get the "perfect" non-all-out-racing Cobra engine. Uhhh, yes, that's what I did....
