Are you guys building them because of the look or is there something else that draws u to an FAI over a 427.
Do u notice a difference in a smaller body, would it handle a hill climb course better?
Thanks

Having owned several 427's (Contemporary, ERA, SPF, FFR, Unique) I wanted something different, the FIA to me is a different breed all together. Sleek lines, swoopy surfaces (not that the 427 does not have them as well, just different), and stands out from the pack of 427's I usually hang out with.Ride quality is about the same, but the small block based weight differences can be felt both on the street and on the track. A far more easy going car that does not have to prove itself to anyone but yourself.
