That's one heck of a story Mike !
Since I put a lot of work in sanding the block smooth and painted it my body color, sanding a lot of other aluminum parts & buying a industrial buffing machine to make them pretty, like a hot rod, why I would sell as good of a motor as it is ? Well, I've always wanted a 427 side oiler and earlier this year, I found myself talking with the editor of "Kit Car Builder Magazine" and my Cobra and this engine build will be in a coming issue. It's based about the differences between the old 60's side oiler and the new aluminum one.
Technology in machining and the parts have improved. I'm very excited about this build and my wife said I can't have two engines.
If...and it's a big if, a show on Speed TV gets picked up for next season, this build project will also be on that show as well but, I'm not counting on it. I've been waiting for Speed executive's to inform the producer of the show for an answer, but I'm tired of waiting.
Some sponsors have come aboard and would like to get even more.
hello,...hello,....anyone else ?
