A Pair of Kittens


After so many hours spent researching, emailing, tracking down parts, cleaning, prepping and rebuilding at considerable expense, the two original 427 engines are truly better than new







They are back in Paramount and ready for the final helm wiring to be run. They were dyno tested at 340 HP and with the original exhaust manifolds and cooling system they should be good for 30-40 HP more.


It is Friday night and Dr Doug has had a long week. As he searches his pockets looking for his trusty Swis Army knife which he has forgotten he has used in place of the machinists standard clothes peg to keep the choke open. Can he find it? Of course he can! At the end of the video Doug's hand gesture says it all...finished, a job well done!
