R.I.P. Conley 427

Post by Boris »

The Conley 427 has been replaced by the Stinger 609. Also discontinued is the 427 Cobra. I guess some thing will always be a dream.

Yea, it is awesome until you look at the price. The 427 in around 90' was 2195, the new engine is 5295. Kick ass looking engine though.

Unfortunately he doesn't make parts for any of his motors from all generations, would be nice to have replacement parts for fourth generation 427 am looking for flywheel. Therefore if anything goes wrong with your current motor, you're out of luck. Be nice if he would post the blue prints so I could have a machinist reproduce them. Good way to get you to by his new 609 motor, but that is not going to happen.
