Those times were actually while running an L78 engine in the car. He pulled the original engine to protect it during his drag racing days though he told me he did run the 427 for awhile. When I get the slides converted I do have at least one engine compartment shot.

Interesting that anyone back in that time frame would be concerned about protecting his original engine. I ran the dog sh*t out my red Super Sports original 396

and by the mid '70s it was stored in my Dad's garage with no engine in it. Kudos to the owner!!
