Big Block Engine Pics

[bsteward]

Hey Low country,

LOVE the engine, it looks fast sitting still.

The garage floor looks great in ford blue as well....

[convincor]

being there no traffic I thought i'd post a more recent pic.
Is nobody building big blocks anymore???

By far the best posting I seen yet! That was awesome! I love FEs, I wish I could afford one, But for now I have to stick with my 460, sourced for free!

Here's a few shots I thought I would share with the BB crowd!



EM with a '63 FE 427



Unique 427 with a Southern Automotive 425 hp FE 406

They both make the proper sound only a BB can make!

I noticed your puke tanks has the cap on the pass side (I bought the same one). Does it hit the hood? I'm told you need the one that has the cap on the drivers side.

thanks

The hood clears the cap if is on the passenger side.

[Mustangerpvg]

Thanks for the info.

Attached is a photo of my new BB. Built by Keith Craft, 514, 565hp, 650ft/lbs on pump gas. And yes, it has the wonderful webers. It started out as the 700hp BB but I wanted the carb change and a little more manners. Working on the MkIII roadster (non-donor) to put it in. How do I post this with the picture instead of the attachment?

And here's a picture of mine. 513 cid, 550 hp and 580 torque.

Thanks Dan, could you post me some instructions on how to put up the pics.

I am interested in seeing how your project goes. Any unforseen hurdles would be a help. I have all the parts in the garage. I am making a body buck out of aluminum tubing except for the shapes which will be the plywood. It will am making a storage rack above the garage door drive. I can't take the body off until I complete this.

Also the edit function does not seem to be working

Since the site software was upgraded it is a little tricky, follow this example:

[img]your filename here[/img]

replace "http://www.your filename here.jpg" with the link to your file.

Also you can experiment with image posting in the "Forum Help and Test Area", kind of a scratch pad for testing.

Cheers

Love those ports. Tennis balls would fit nicely in there!

[Snakebit31]

This was my first FFR, built in 2000. It was a '66 428 with Edelbrock heads and Performer RPM intake, Holley 750cfm.

I sold the car in 2005, and plan to build another when the coupe is done.

[FUNFER2]

I bought this engine from Carroll Shelby in 2001. It was raced in 1967 when the side oilers became scarce. Long story if anyone is interested, please email me. I'm planning on selling it as a long block, minus the intake and carb. so I can but a new Dove side oiler. I have all the specs., photo's and a short video on you tube, if you're interested, let me know. cobrakev@galaxycable.net Anyway, here she is. (I have changed valve covers to the Pentroofs)

To sotxbutler; How do you like the injection set up? I'm building a 427 and have been looking at the injection but still have this thing for the traditional webbers. I know about the never have to tune for climate thing, but love the old webber look. Any advice?
