Default Here Is A Copy Of The Research Paper On The 427 Sohc Ford Hemi

HERE IT IS IT IS NOT THE BEST BUT I BELIEVE I WILL GET BETTER AFTER ALL I AM A FIRST TIME COLLEGE STUDENT AS PART OF THIS COURSE I HAVE TO TAKE AN ENGLIS CLASS.
The 427 SOHC engines that were built in 1964 and submitted to NASCAR and were rejected because Ford did not meet homologation rules. The 427 SOHC went on to be sold over the counter at dealer ships and became famous on the drag racing circuit. Ford in response to the Hemi’s success in NASCAR created the 429 boss to compete in NASCAR.
Bob Tasca, a car dealer and drag racer, took 427 SOHC heads and bolted them onto the 428 BOSS the 428 COBRA JET was born. Once Ford learned what he was doing they as a result created the Cobra Jet Family of engines, the 429 as well as 428. What made the 427SOHC heads so effective on the these other engines was the cross flow intake on one side and the smooth transition for flowing gases it helped draw in fresh air on one side and remove the gases on the other side. This made the other cars faster in take off and run better over the long haul.
The engines that were developed as a result were 427 Low Risers the 427 Medium Risers the 427 High Risers and the 427 Tunnel Port. The muscle car wars Lasted from the late fifties to the seventies there is a lot of technology and engineering that can be found on a lot of today’s car’s including some of the police cars that Ford built
. The 427 had a single cam over each head at a time when most motors were using a single cam. It used a six foot long timing chain to power the two cams . The other ideas that made it work so well was the way it burned fuel due to the location of the sparkplugs the flame burned more evenly over the whole stroke. As mentioned earlier the way it took in air and discharged it through the exhaust system made the engine run cooler and more efficient. This allowed it to make 616 HP @ 7500 RPMS with one or 658 HP with two 780 vac-sec.
The engines that are being used in today high performance cars that Ford makes get there engineering from the 427’s and some from the other high performance engines that
Ford made during the muscle car era of the sixties and early seventies. There is a new breed of engine that Ford s has been planning and designing to compete with the modern day Hemi that they have yet to give a name.

Glad to hear you got the A.

You have went out of your way to thanks everyone. That takes class. I think you have a brite future.

If it's not too embarrising or impropper, you might want to post a copy of your paper. Think of it as being published world wide.

When your doing research you need to find the right resources to gather the information, not an easy task. In that regard, I would think Club Cobra, for this project, would be hard to beat. What other specific resources of significance did you find on this subject?

Sorry, I just couldn't help but notice the misspellings, improper usages and just plain bad grammar in the few posts made in this thread about a college? level paper.

"When your doing research"

"You have went out of your way" "you have a brite future"

"in i got an A on it and an A on the research i could not"




I would dearly love to see a copy of this paper. What school?

I'm guilty. I usually have to wait a day or two to re-read and find my mistakes.

No doubt Wilf also beats his head against the wall trying in vain to keep the grammer on track.

I usually am able to decipher the gist of the messages and it usually doesn't bother me. It's just I remembered his original post requesting help with his 'college' paper and now he posts he gets an A?! I STILL would like to know just what college gives A's for those types of papers and/or just read the paper for myself.

Spelling and grammar aren't too important for general communciation. What is important is where is Wilf and why is he tying his grandmother to the train tracks!!? Shouldn't we call someone?

Was that Wilfs 'Grammer' that starred in those early 1900's movies about the "Perils of Pauline"?
