The NIB 427 side oiler blocks are new warrantee blocks from the early 1970's from what I can tell so far. I have 1 of the cammer motors in a mudd bogger for sale on Craigs list. in a 1970's ford P.U. called Rat Poison. Will be wants $30,000 for the complete veh incl the rear large swamp tires. Also have used 427 std & side oiler blocks, 428 CJ blocks, medium & High Riser heads, forged cranks, Alumn 4V, dual quad & tripower intakes, etc. My friend was a real Ford racing nut. Helping him out before he died and working around all those 427 motors is what got me interested in a Cobra again. Once I get all the stuff sorted out I'll most likely post the items in the for sale forum here. Any questions, contact me. The other Bob Q.

That would be great. That way we can continue to tweak RodKnock about his SOHC motor.

Does RodKnock have a Ford SOHC motor or one of those Dove or other brand SOHC? From what I can determine the orig Ford SOHC is more valueable and collectable. Is that correct? B.Q.

RodKnock has dreams of having any sort of SOHC motor, the more alloy the better. But as of yet, he is still unwilling to stroke the check to make his dream into reality.

Maybe he also has a 'light weight' checkbook?

I can understand that completely. This is alot of money for a motor, but from what I understand Ford only made about 750 of these motors. They were outlawed the 1st time they went on a Nascar track for hotlaps. I can see why, as the stock H.P. rating was 616 if I remember out of the box. Bob Q

Hey, if a great deal came along, I'd buy any Cammer.
But with all due respect to BBQ, $30,000 for an unknown Cammer in a vehicle that I would have to toss, is not really a great deal for me, especially in this economy. That's my humble opinion. I've seen complete original standard bore Cammers with known histories and sellers for less and you didn't have to throw away a vehicle.
At any rate, Doug is right, I would be more interested in the modern Cammer with an alloy block and heads and a T&D rocker assembly, but Keith Craft's $40K Cammer is just a little outside my comfort zone today, but tomorrow is a new day.

Don't junk the existing truck. Put another engine in it and recoup some of your cost.

It's not like it's a Toyota Tacoma or something. Have you seen a mudd bogger and been to a mudd bogger event?

Hmmm, I could swap the Cammer and the mudd bogger tires for my 482 and Yokohama's and call my Cobra "Snake Poison."
