This dry sump stuff sure does make the mouth water,looked into that a little at first.Knowing our car was going to need cabin heat the real estate is would not allow both heater box and sump tank.
My first engine choice was going to be the SOHC 427" Wow! is all I can say.In the end the 460 turned out to be the best choice for ease of building big power and torque, lifting the hood and not seeing any ground.
Except for #7 plug (made a little 3" square door in firewall for easy access) motor is very easy to work on.Have a spare 460 sitting in the shop just in case.
