(Not trying to stir up any continuation, but a fun memory for the record in all this.)

Reminds me of an article in one of my car magazines in the 70’s or early 80’s. Somehow it got away and I no longer have it, wish I did.

Around the time I was converting my Mustang to a 390 block based FE, I used to relish in this article’s epic quote. It was by a guy named Big Ed, promoting the benefits of the 390 engine.

The quote as I remember it…”Big Ed Says, Iron Men Don’t Wear Bow-Ties!” (I may have added the Big Ed Says part at the time!). It had a great photo of Ed with a look of unwavering determination. Ed was a hero of mine at the time!

In recent years I’ve Googled that old article online to no avail. I would often quote that to my brother and friends in fun! ☺ Brent
