The 396ci nascar engines were commonly used on the short tracks and road courses. If you study period photos you will see "396 CI" instead of "427 CI" painted on the hood of many of the nascar Fords.
I remember a guy running a 352ci Super Stock '63 or '64 Galaxie.
I think he ran SS/N or SS/M and he used to spin the motor 8800 rpm.
