WEBMASTER'S NOTE: The following is an ongoing project by Wes Adams to build a "Poor Man's 427", using a Ford FT 330 block and other 'cast-off' parts. The posts were saved from the FordFE.com forums and reposted here with Wes' permission.

I want to say thanks to these guys Tommy-T, Warren, Ted Eaton, and a local guy name Richard. Here is what we got:

This is a Roller cam that we got from Tommy-T here...what a cam! It's kind of big for street use but that's what we like.

This is an Ed Street Master from Warren. Scott Vincent did some port work to make this thing RUN!

We got a Holley 1050 with a Wilson spacer from Richard (a local guy in town here). Yes that's right...a 1050. The carb and spacer are brand new! That's a lot of carb, but we'll use it.

Ted gave me a killer deal on a set of NEW pistons for my wife's 427. (That's later down the road, when this Poor Man's thing is over and the '55 F-100 428 is done).

Here we are comparing the NOS 427 piston (that Ted sold me) with the Venolias (that Tommy-T donated for the Poor Man's 427).

Once again THANK YOU for making this possible to do. I can't wait for the results on this when it's all said and done!
