yes Ron,,
My Dad was a low budget hot rodder,,and was always buying wrecked or junk cars for motors,trannys ,body parts etc,I remember he drug home an UGLY brown and tan 58 ford ,it had a 352 PI motor,,I remember thinking it sounded cool,even then I could hear the solid tappets and the differnt cam profile,,actually I think some of these parts may still be in the woods behind my grandfathers house,,lol,,{this is Ky}
Another one was a 61 police car he traded for,390 4bbl,3 spd,it had big cast iron manifolds and an ALTERNATOR ,yes 1961,and beat nearly every thing around,I go tthe motor when I was Like 18 and over hauled it fo ran old truck I had,later sold it to a guy who raced dirt cars ,beater type cars,Little did we know it was a 375 hp 390,,and get this,,dad GAVE away the headers maybe 5 yrs ago with out my knowledge,the car is still there,I need to go ck it out,may be some parts to scrounge.
The artical I read said something like when they were talking about this new motor,in the notes they simply referred to it as the fairlane Engine since thats where they discussed the new design,and it stuck.no matter what they call it,,damn I love em,,Tk
