Forgive me my Mopar brothers. I have sinned

Negatory Ghostrider. The FE (Ford Edsel) line had the 332, 352, 360, 361, 390, 391, 406, 427 and 428. There was also the MEL offshoot of the FE family that consisted of the 383, 410, 430 and 462. They were FE engines too, but in the higher end Mercurys, Edsels and Lincolns (MEL)
I stopped trying to see the logic of Ford's engine "Families?" So Ford in the mid 60s made their most competitive big block. Their 427. Even a more higher technology SOHC Cammer version. They of course discontinued. And advanced their lower performance 390-460 line. Adding a Boss version of 429. That really under performed on the street/strip. So then came the 428 CJ. Not bad. But too late on the HP wars. And their small blocks? Even worse. 4 different versions of the 351. None are directly component swappable. And of course a 352. And that too is specific to that platform.

WTH Ford?
