ERA 561 Front 3/4 view
There has only been a couple ERA 427's ever built to accurately reproduce the "street" version of the 427 without sidepipes, roll bar and hood scoop. I've owned 3 ERA 427's #76, #196 and this one. It's got a sideoiler 427 in it with aluminum heads and dual 4's. It really "scoots!"
This is the fire breathing motor that was in ERA #196 I used to own. It's a Holman-Moody prepared 427 Sideoiler w/ 12.5 to 1 pistons and a midriser dual four barrel manifold w two Holley 780's. I would guess it was pushing 600 HP. I had to run race gas in it. It sounded like it was spitting ball bearings down the sidepipes!
