Ford built some 427 blocks with 352 cranks for experimental Nascar back in 64-65 when Nascar was thinking about capping cubic inches at 400. There was a magazine article with the engine on the cover at the time calling it "Ford's Mistery 396" Nascar motor. There was a guy who put a Ford 396 in his 69 Talledega Torino and just wasted just about anybody on the streets in the Houston area. Unreal RPM with power!
