There was also a 2x4 barrel with the E-2 cam rated at 285 hp that was released before the Super Charged option was released it was dropped after the Super Charger

It seems that there were several different people running the blown 57 Fords back in the Jr. Stock days, including 2 dr posts, 4 dr HT`s, and even a wagon or 2. The ex Larry Walker from California 2 dr post blown 57 has been up here in BC Canada since about 1971, and is being restored to "Legal Cheater" status, after sitting for over 30 years.
