This was a rect port solid roller 427, it broke a valve spring
See picture above, So I built a budget 468 for it (red motor) a guy I met fell in love with it so I sold it to him, now it has a 462 with aluminum heads..it is literaly just a bunch of stuff I had laying around and realized I could build me a little motor..kinda mis-matched, cam to small heads too big, not enough compression.
I am building a 505cid motor right now for it, only lacking a set of quality BBC heads ( I hope to buy income tax). It should be around 7-800 HP on alky.
I will post some more current pictures tonight maybe.

Here is the first drive of it since I owned it with 427..
