Very cool Shoomin!
Us Brits know a bit about track racing and Yanks lol...
Most historic classes here are very strict on engine size! A 427ci centre-oiler is 427 plus one overbore...
I just did a 427 'standard bore' for an early Galaxie a 1963 centre-oiler with medium riser heads. They are over-bored 406ci's, so don't like over-boring anyways. Cast crank and Lemans rods and rev to 7000rpm's.
I'm guessing a 426 maxie wedge will be very competitive in stockish form?
I have a 1962 413 max wedge engine here for a similar build also... Big ports can hurt power curves on race tracks with corners...
I also have the 1969 Weslake 426ci wedge engine that was built for circuit racing. Real shame it was never put into production. Ovalport heads and a very sexy Edelbrock STR intake.
Makes the Mopar M1 'max wedge' intake look small lol...

Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero, thanx Horace!
There’s no point trying to fix stuff that ain’t broke,,, 'but if ain’t broke',,, you is not trying hard enough...
