    Most of the FEs I had were in need of rebuilds, some I built. It was a long time ago, they were all sold off in 1989
    Some that I had:
    406 old race engine with x bolt mains adjustable rockers teflon gudgen buttons, This was a blown engine I bought
    428 SCJ that I rebuilt with 2 x 4bbl lowriser (that was a beast of an engine) (Think it went to Auckland into a BB 67-68 Mustang)
    427 top oiler x bolt mains, very nicely finished block, 1964 had Shelby alumin' sidewinder inlet (this was in wellington last I Knew)
    I built a 410ci with 427 heads big cam 11:1 comp, factory 427 twin point - this thing had unbelievable power. (I sold this to a guy in Levin)
    390s etc
    I would like to build an early 60s FE big block Historic, I particularly like the 1957 ford custom 2 dr

    On another tangent... It would also be very cool to do a build on the Robbie Francevic's 427 Fairlane

    Neat engines Paul. As well as 352's and 390's I had a 65 427 top oiler , lemans rods, 428 CJ heads,
    genuine Ford tunnel wedge twin four intake C8AX.
    Just wondering did you seam weld any part of the engine bay ? Do the rules allow it.
