Not Ranked
Mag Articles
I've collected a few off ebay.
HOT ROD June 1968, not exactly FE 427 but an article about lots of bizzare experimental engines Ford was building. The 427 Calliope, Indy DOHC, a SOHC 302, and a Hemi 429 which may have become the Boss 429 but it doesn't look the same. I don't believe any of the engines featured ever made it to production.
HOT ROD January 1965 - Full Details on Ford's Overhead Cam 427 Hemi. Nice article on the SOHC. Also Gene Windfields 427 powered Strip Star custom. He drove it to work at Monster Garage, kinda cool.
Car Craft August 1967 - Tunnel Port Heads, kind of a crappy article, also Blueprinting Ford's Street 427 Medium Riser, and a great article on the Cougar Country SOHC cougar funny car.
These are a lot of fun to read, and the ads in the vintage mags are great too. Also don't overlook the Ford publications like:
HI-PER Parts (red cover)
and
Ford High Performance (blue cover)
Both have good racing blueprint info and cobra kits info.
