Re: 70 Judge RAIV and V continuation
Steve,
The 427 Tunnel Port performed well as a race engine, but Fords first attempt at using the Tunnel Port design on a production street engine was the 302 in 1968. That is when all the problems had developed for street use. I would have thought that Pontiac would have taken notice to that, but possibly they already had the Pontiac V engine developed to the point of no return, based on the performance of the Ford 427 engine. For that design to work correctly it required huge cubic inches and high RPM which both the Ford 302 and Pontiac 400 were lacking for constant street use.
