Keith,
I have an alloy 427. It is in a AC Mk1V that went to the USA without engine & tranny. The engine was built and installed by Jack Roush Racing in 1990. This was a special order by a Japanese enthusiast. There is a story of it in Sports Car International 12/90.
The engine looks like a Pond. There are no identifying marks and no engine number stamped anywhere. Definitely 427 side oiler, cross bolt, alloy heads & block.
Anyway, it seems it dislodged a valve seat with the usual damage before my ownership.
Block OK, 1 head no good, 1 piston damaged (1 mark).
My question is where do I go to get an alloy head (s) with good alloy that won't drop inserts? Originally had roller rockers.
Regards
