Well OK I think the brits or germans figured it out in the 20s or something but I was thinking about the 427 SOHC engines from the late 60s.
No question that is a sweet engine. Gotta wonder why GM didn't think of that! On the other hand a 500 hp boss 302 crate engine is only 10 grand so why reinvent the wheel anyway... |

Ford built a 4cam Indycar V8 based loosely on the 289 back in the 60's. There may have been some Cosworth influence. A few years ago, I bought some tools from a shop in St. Pete that had 5 or 6 of the complete motors on a rack, plus cabinets full of spares and a couple of genuine Indycar chassis in process of being restored. Pretty amazing, just a hole in the wall shop with all that stuff going on.

Looking forward to the nose job. Hope the result is as I imagined in my head. :x:
