    I watched it again and saw something else that was fishy with the Ford FE 427.
    Is just me or does the Ford 427 have a "tunnel-port" intake on it??
    I do know they came with two fours but Ford never had a "tunnel -port" intake that came from the factory.

    Yes you are right it is a tunnelport engine. The tunnelport heads and intake were over the counter parts. And never came on a production 427.
