Wayne ,

I totally agree about part #'s not being absolute with an FE, example; the defining characteristic of a 65 Shelby 2x4 intake manifold is ..........the absence of a part #.....Holman Moody certainly built FE's to every configuration under the sun....However, from everything I have ever read or seen, the NASCAR heavy polished rod and .080 over rod journals are considered THE identifying hallmark of the high revving Oval track motor. Heads, manifolds, valves, cams,were used and interchanged , I think the NASCAR rotating assy. was only produced (at least by Ford) from 67-70 , I supose someone else had to build them from 63-66.?????
