    Yup, that is exactly why Ed Pink liked and ran them AND why the NASCAR sanctioning body NIXED them...

    I talked to Riley Singley yesterday in person (392 fuel engine builder) and he said that the salvage yards were full of the blocks/cranks and they were strong... He said THAT is why they ran them due to his team budget THEN he reminded me how much Kalitta liked the 427 SOHC engine...



    IF the FACTORY block was weak with the SOCH @ 1600+ HP in the mid 60's, the block was also weak with the wedge heads at lower HP numbers...
