Default Any SOHC 427 Wannabes Out There?

Like me. Makes me think, but with all that cast iron, I think I'll wait for the one of those all aluminum jobs.

All things considered and relative, $32K for an original with standard bore, blah, blah, blah, seems like a "steal."

There's something about them that make me weak in the knees too.

Excuse me sir, can you spare some change, $32,000 would do just fine.

<raises hand>

My name is Eric, and I'm a SOHC-aholic.



I love the 60's series Fords (Galaxie, Starliner, Mustang, etc...) with a SOHC motor.

In the '90's you could buy an Earl Wade Cammer in the crate for $18K.

True, but in the early 70's we were very lucky to me making $12K a year!
