That got me thinking, the 427 S/C had a 42 gallon gas tank probably meant for long endurance races. And that is not probably the type of race that the 427 raced in much. So would you actually want to fill the tank all the way for a shorter race? And if you balanced the car with a full tank of gas, would it still handle correctly on a nearly empty tank of gas? I kind of remember reading something about such a problem with a Cobra, but don't remember where I read it.
