Like I said a lot of interesting information in the AMA sheets: a 68 FE 390 valves are ground on 45* for all Hp listed. The 427FE valves are listed as being ground on 30 *. Both the engines with 4V listed as .4809 lift intake, .490 exhaust, with hyd lifters.
Ford had a daisy chain on the engine adds, from a 302 2V up to 427 4V. This is the chain on a 1968 GT Torino Fastback your choice of starting weight. Curb weight. 3362# About 95% of curb weight Shipping weight 3208#. 390 2V vs 302 2V +243# 390 4V vs 390 2V. + 37# 427 4V vs 390 4V. + 70# A similar process is used on the transmissions |
