Always been intrigued by these engines. Its a pity these engines weren't seriously developed , great video mate !

[@grandcrappy]

Thanks Dove, Kasse, for keeping this mighty legend ALIVE!

[@alanarmstrong2323]

The mighty fe sideoiler 427 cammer hemi!

[@dr.hugog.hackenbush9443]

All-new manufactured parts and complete engines are available through Shelby American. Pricy though.

Seems like you have simular cadence and sound simular to your Dad. I would call him when he could no longer get out. I know he hated it but he dealt with it easy it seemed.
-- I had thought you all had closed up when our own people went off shore.
I should have purchased some of the F5's for memory. Huge amount of time developing those. --- Glad to see the facility is being used. It's a lot to pay taxes and not used.

so i think forged rods balanced and polished ! = i bought a engine - forged crank x drilled oil ways and chamfered oil holes nitrided and balanced to 1 gram = ? forged rotating assy = cost me a packet !

I thought Dove went out of business years ago.

Great video. Did your company CNC the block from Aluminum billet?

[@4mecz]

Looking forward to watching this build!

[@rp75heavy]

Nice

[@sydrider6023]

Wow, this is a neat video! Talk about having access to a ton of FE knowledge!

[@rp75heavy]

Very cool piece, and craftsman ship..!

[@rp75heavy]

Ed Pink did his last Cammer engine, it got shipped out to Australia...!

[@ronsmith7739]

Do they still have the gear drive like the late Pete Robinson ???

[@chriscochran8079]

Exactly what I was wondering as the long chains were the weak link.

[@ronsmith7739]

Four keyways on the crankshaft, looks like for a blower. Best guess a top fuel engine.

[@sydrider6023]

So the crank bearing oiling holes chamfers were extended in only one direction?

[@phildo39645]

Very nice.. are those groves behind the main bearings in the block for oil squirters?

[@stephendemellojr9049]

What do you get for a complete top end? I already have a b b m Aluminum block

[@robertpenfold9167]

Why does this cammer block have lifter holes in it

[@chucksgarage7165]

It’ll be a shame when that engine is covered up by a vehicle! 😂

[@darrylsmith7908]

This is cool stuff to see. How much does a Cammer usually cost over a conventional FE build?

[@dovemfg]

This one is around 30k

[@dr.hugog.hackenbush9443]

Lots.

[@quinton3997]

Can you turn a regular 427 block into a cammer

[@dovemfg]

Yes. Absolutely

[@TheJackmac55]

nice!!
