427 Ford Tunnel Port Super Stock Engine
I have a Very Rare Engine I am Helping a Friend Sell.
Sometime in the mid to late 60s Ford Contracted Holman Moody in Charlotte NC and maybe the location in Florida and California to build 50 Special Engines for Super Stock Drag Racing to compete against the 426 Hemi Super Stock Dodges.
The 427 Tunnel Port Engine was the choice and along with a Dual Four Barrel Single Plane Intake, a Solid Roller Cam and a 1/2 inch Stroker Crank, Holman Moody ended up with a 489 cubic inch to 496 inch depending on bore size.
These engines also had Solid Roller Cams.
These engines were only available to Factory Sponsered Drag Race Teams for Ford.
This engine was a Race Engine in the Charlotte area for some time and then sold to my friend who raced it for many years.

This engine was Raced in the Charlotte area for some time in the sixties and maybe early seventies and then sold to my friend who raced it for many years.He retired the engine years ago and now his engine of choice is a modern 632 Big Block for serious competition or a Stroker Windsor for some of the more fun classes.
This engine is a complete short block with the Tunnel Port Heads and the Two four intake along with Adjustable Rocker Arms and other misc parts to build a complete engine.It uses a 427 Center Oiler Cross Bolt Main Block
This is a Rare piece of Ford Racing History.
The asking price for this engine is $9,500.00 and has come down from $15,000 which is where the price has been for years.
