I guess I will really get you guys going. I picked up a 427 SOHC in an estate sale about a month ago. Somewhere along its racing history it ate a valve in the number one cylinder. It did some cosmetic damage to the head. The block has been bored 30 over, but there are about 30 + small nicks in the cylinder. I know the motor was raced after this, and survived. I am debating what to do with the block, it is the origional cammer block, # 404 made. I hate to sleve it, and it would probably be alright for some time if I ran it like it is. That is why I am interested in the marine blocks.
Sorry guys, I think it is going to live in my 40 coupe, and not a Cobra.
