[Tigers] Ford Small Block OHC Motor (prototype)

[Larry Mayfield]

I had the recent experience of visiting Speedy Bills motorsports museum 
in Lincoln, NE this past week or so. One of the motors I spotted was one 
that had made a hot rod issue way back in time. It was the small block 
ford with the attached overhead cam pieces, one cam for each head.  I 
know one of ya knows which motor I am talking about, but the issue is 
what kind of power did it make?  That looks just plain cool. I wonder 
how hard it would be to make something similar. I wonder if any of the 
current v8 motors (ie lexus as example) have dimensions that might allow 
the use on a small block with some work.

Place was way cool!
