List, all..
Folks, I was not and am not seeking information on the 4 cam motor Ford
ran in the Indy cars. My question was about a prototype conversion that
ford made to a 289 that had a single cam bolted onto the top of a head.
Now, does anyone have any info on that prototype conversion motor? That
was the original question.
