Look like this ? :eek:
or the stripped down version
He must of been talking about the 427SOHC or "Cammer" as it was called. It was based on the 427 sideoiler block and had overhead cams with a timing chain that was almost 7 feet long. NASCAR banned it after a few races and it found it's way into the NHRA and drag racing. If you want the ultimate ford engine this is it. Something like 680 HP out of the box stock as I remember. G.
