Anyone have any extra info on this 420 horse beauty?
I'm searching the For perf parts stuff online and can't find much, not even a $ amount.

Top half of page 37 in the 2004 FRPP catalogue has some 411 about it, including a footnote that says "planned availability in 2004." No part number listed on it yet, Ford's waiting for some reason. BTW, bottom half of this page is a pic of the FR500 Mustang. Are we to connect he dots on this?

The $ quote I've seen is $14,995.00 retail. It was on a Mustang site. I can't remember which one.

Yep, you're probably real close with that number, 2003. Looking at other crate engines in the '04 catalogue, an '03 supercharged Cobra engine with everything attached, is $11,900.00 WeeeDoggies...

Why this stroker over say a VT? Is it the cache' of the Ford name or do you get something better.

Probably would cause me to re-open the payment book.
Seems to me that the power of that n.a. motor could be stepped up a peg or two with the supercharger of your choice.
Man, I'm starting to feel sorry for the guy's who could afford the muscle cars of the 60's.... they ain't seen 'nuthin!
:up:

Now this is a Cammer Motor and I know it will fit, it's only 1/6th the real size! is this cool or what?

427 SOHC :up: *sweet*

Remember when they came-out; have a re-print of the HotRod magazine cover - exhaust manifolds glowing red.

625HP IIRC

Yes, I do remember, it's still the KOOLEST motor on the planet. You see a larger picture of this Model, it has a die cast block and heads and so detailed it looks like you could start it!
