The truth here is that the 427 side oiler was and is a dam good engine, with today's technology, people get a lot more power from them now than in the sixties. Also, I don't want to offend but I am a bit doubtfull about the accuracy of some of the dynos' out there. I have seen wide variations between some of them, as much as 100hp, and the engine builders have a lot of interest in seing big power numbers! It's good for business!!!!!!!!!!!!
