Joe just finished rebuilding my '64 427 FE engine about two months ago. Dyno time was not available as Jeff next door was back logged with the dyno. If I told any of my motor head friends that the car is making 750HP none after a ride would argue. Unless you plan on letting your car sit in a trailer to be raced only, Joe's creation in your ERA will most likely scare you to death! Save your money, pick a HP number you like and remember that the only thing you will have trouble passing will be a gas station. My engine is .30 over and stroked using the Ford SC 428 crank, Edelbrock 76cc heads, stock 425hp Ford cam, Blue Thunder dual 4bbl intake with Holley 500cfm carbs and Canton oil pan. It starts right away, idels at 850rpm, hasn't leaked a drop of oil, stays cool and will pull your face back twenty years! Best of luck. You choose one of the best FE engine builder around.
