Re: Help me build a Raptor killer
I don't get the obssession with the 427. The 427 is a good engine, but it is a big bore, short stroke engine that only makes that kind of power at high RPM. The high HP 427's were never known for their torque. It is exactly the opposite of what you need for a heavy 4x4 truck, especially one that is going to have OD. It would be gutless in OD with big tires. A 454/496/502 would be a much better choice for your application, if you are stuck on a BBC.
