[QUOTE="oilwell1415, post: 10402381, member: 58424"] That's really a stretch considering the man the Boss was named for didn't start working at Ford for several years after the 427 SOHC was developed. Boss was also a title for a complete option package (for lack of a better term) on a car, not just the engine. There was never any plan for a complete option package including the Cammer, it was just an engine.[/quote] Both cams retarded with rpm, but IIRC the right was about twice as bad as the left. You had to decide what rpm you wanted it to run good at and set the cams up accordingly. Definitely not a very desirable tuning feature. [quote}Big blocks are history considering how tunable small blocks are these days and the weight advantage.[/QUOTE] Agreed. We've got small blocks cranking out power old school big blocks could only dream about and getting 30 mpg in the process. Enjoy them while you can because they won't be around for much longer. The misguided treehuggers are winning the battle to rid the planet of too many things that really have no real impact on the environment and factory hot rods are one of them. [/QUOTE]
