Ed Pink has been a prominent engine builder since 1960 having conquered NHRA INDYCAR USAC and IMSA with his legendary engines. One engine Ed is known for is the iconic Ford 427 SOHC (Single Overhead Cam) or CAMMER V8 used in NHRA competition during the glory days of Garlits, Prudhomme, and others. At age 92 Ed has just finished his FINAL engine build and it is a Ford SOHC 427. We sit down with him to hear his firsthand account of being approached by Ford in 1966 to build these engines for public sale and develop a competitive drag racing program for Lou Baney and Don Prudhomme. Ed Pink is truly a living legend and one of the last living members of the pioneer generation for motorsports in the world.

This video was 100% Ed's idea. He wanted to share his story and have his last engine rebuild ever be documented... Help Ed and leave a thumbs up on this video! (it helps more people see it) and send it to one of your friends too! Ed Pink is one of the final pioneer members of motorsports still alive and his life wisdom shared in little nuggets throughout this video are absolutely priceless. Isn't his memory of technical details completely shocking? 427 SOHC Ford Service Manual video on Stapleton42Extra: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-W-jsUhBXuGw.html

There are a lot of questions about this engine that are left unanswered. As far as I can find NASCAR banned the SOHC and OHV Hemi in 1965 not 1964 . It opens the question about the 1963 430 Chevy mystery engine that never came in a production car and some say that only 20 existed bit it was allowed to run the entire year . It was far faster than any other brand but had problems lasting a 500 mile race . Anyway there are aftermarket blocks today that are strong enough to make a modern SOHC reliable. Amazing that the Fe engine is still.popular as a true Hot Rod engine and the improvements continue .

Fun fact, Don Garlits was trying to break the 426 to go back to his beloved 392's, because he thought it wouldn't be as good, it never worked in his opinion, so he deliberately tried to spark knock it into oblivion. Turned out the more timing he put to it, the faster it would go. This was said by the man himself in an interview Love these vids with the old guard, the stories you hear is awesome

@Bbbbad724 Год назад

That is one main reason why I love the FE so much, it is so much like the 392. Just a sturdy 2500 hp block. If you dry deck fill it , you can get it to take 5000 hp, and there was a Dove dry deck that could live under the Cammer at 8000. But time marches on. Bill Coon was making stuff a few years ago. Ed Pink the man, the legend!!!

I still have the tool to remove the value springs from Ford flatheads that my late Dad used to hop up his '32 Ford.

When I started racing in the 70's, Ed was the man I turned to. What a great man with an awesome mind for engine building. If you wanted to talk speed he was always there. He helped me with car and motorcycle engines. Back then I ran Speedway bikes, MotoGP ( known as Grand Prix Racing at the time.) and amateur Drag racing. Thank you sir for my years of success.

To kind of take you there, ( the 392 era ), there was a staggering amount of cumulative knowledge . The main thing was how much lead the Early Model would take . Everybody and I mean everybody knew the '92 would barely make one run above a certain number, I think it was 36° degrees . This made just about everybody' reluctant to go beyond this in the 426 . Finally Garlits threw caution to the wind, and the rest is history .

This just may be my most favorite you tube video ever! I am naturally an 'engine nut', plus Ed Pink, whom I knew nothing about before watching this, besides hearing his name mentioned from time to time, was beyond gracious with his time with you guys, (which as Ed said, was for us)!

Thanks man! Have you seen the other Ed Pink shop tour video we did?

Thank you so much for bringing us more from an absolute legend in the Engine Building industry. What I love about Mr. Pink is he is no one trick pony. Drag Racing, Indy Car and others, always innovating, learning and moving forward. Awesome!

Mr. Pink is so so awesome. I enjoyed this but l was lost. I'm 73 and I thought when I did a tune up years ago, which was changing points, plugs, and condenser l thought l had really done something !!. Wow he is something else !!!!!

I lived through those years back when the sohc was released and my brother and I were so glad that Ford finally had a monster engine that could win! Thank you Ed Pink!
