Is this a 390 CI car ? Think I remember it from a car show at Yankee Smokehouse years ago.

This car has 427 Center Oiler, 0.017 over. As I understand in the car since at least 2013, prior to that in California.
Forged Pistons
Erson Hydraulic cam/lifters/rockers
Edelbrock heads
Port match Sidwinder
780 carb
9qt pan


The car you remember may have been the other red HT car, now Kevin's, which has had a re-body and a motor change since then.

Alloy Hi-Tech Build

???

My car made its debut at SAAC in 2019 with a 427 (482) in front, so not me.

Didn't Acton put a 390FE in it before you owned it?

Fire in the hole.

Started the car today after a refresh of the top.
Added VC from early car my friend Jack owned.
Added PCV and breather
New intake gaskets, bunch of little stuff.
Couple little stuff left but now it’s time to drive it.
Tomorrow heat cycle drive.....

After Re-torque we may be good.
