Sorry if that comes of defensive. But your comment reads like an advertisement for a competely different engine from another engine builder.

Of course you can get more power from an FE - add cubic inches, cam, or compression - just like any other engine. I've had pump gas FEs at over 750 HP - and done it at the EMC where everyone can see the results on an impartial, third party dyno.

sixtiesforever1966 - I fail to see the point in your message. This is a mild combination going into a street rod. It's not a maximum power combination - just a way to showcase some new technology applied to a classic engine.

If you want a small block crate engine by all means buy one. It will run nicely and look like another pretty small block. Making it a "427" to justify the badges on the car is like stuffing a sock in your pants. It'll never have the looks or the value of a real FE.

@Survival427FE im looking for efi on my 428cj. i want to know what distributor to use end intake manifold. i will have my iron heads worked on with a efi compatible hyd roller cam.i would really like to have it ground at around 490. for street use only? i want it to idle smoothly and civil for the street. i was wondering about a throttle body wih an intake elbow to manifold setup, what would you recomend i do? its going into a 69 mustang fastback

@1962Galaxie514ciMPFI

I've yet to try one of the new throttle body deals. Cannot see any reason why they would not work - but nowhere near as well as a multiport system. After all - the OE mfgrs went to multiport and away from throttle body stuff many,. many years ago.

[Survival427FE]

Depends on the system you choose. I have used a single four barrel throttle body with the FAST EZ-EFI and it worked very well and was simple to tune.

@Survival427FE thats what i want throttlebody to intake elbow multi-point, but i want mass air instead of speed-density i know its possible i just need someone who has done this help me out, and i need to know what distributor and computer to use? if i cant use this then im just going to put a 4.6l 2v in it.

I'm looking at building a 427 stroker (FE) for my 96 f250. Are there any big challenges in building up an injected engine rather than a carbed one? This would be my first FE and the biggest build I've ever taken on myself.
