Ranking The 8 Best V8 Engines Of All Time (And The 7 Worst)

I do not like the idea of a 6ft. long timing chain

Neither do I but trust me when I tell you, I drove a 65 ford truck with a 427 sohc and dual 4s and the last thing on my mind was the timing chain. That thing was a monster. There weren’t a whole lot of hemis that would run with one. It’s too bad Ford never put one in a car.
