This 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Drag Pack Super Cobra Jet has a 427
4-bolt main engine block with 428 crank and rods. The reasoning for
the 427 block is because of the 4-bolt mains and a little secret
that few folks know. The 428 blocks cracked on the #2 main web;
thus, letting the engine lose oil pressure resulting in
catastrophic failure. Even the guys that campaigned the 428 Cobra
Jet engine for Ford Motor Company did not run 428 blocks. The
engine is balanced and blueprinted.
In March 1969, the Mustang Mach 1 was named "The quickest
four-person production car" ever tested by Car Life Magazine,
earning it a chapter in the history of automotive enthusiasts and
securing its legacy for the future.
