Exactly Doug .. there was nothing like an FE ... I Drag raced mine competitively for abotu 4 years in B/SA Comet ... and that baby would turn ON like a rocket after about 1/2 way down the track .. and I would catch those Dodges and Chevys in the traps every time.
But the SOHC was a different story ... never got to run one. But it was huge .. I think you would have needed a tube rear frame to make it work. The books show 650hp with dual 4's.
All I can say is a PANTERA with an FE is Bitchin !
