Not stock by any means
Thought so. Just sounded a tad cammed up vs stock. Big blocks regardless brand all sound good…. Yours is beyond sounding good.
It got rebuilt by a previous owner around 1988 (not a stock rebuild). I bought it in 1999 and sold is in 2019. It’s a 427 400HP car with 3x2 carbs.
Here’s the cam card and engine.
Is that your car ?

Yes sir!
Dynoed at 400hp…. Or that’s where it started before it was modded? That sounds like more than 400.
And…. Bought my 77 in 99. But it’s a lowly L48, stock at like 185hp on a good day. All I’ve done to this point is Edelbrock Performer intake and swapped the Q-jet for a Holley. Currently in the process of changing the single into dual exhaust to true dual exhaust and headers. Not going to make a race car out of it…. But should run a tad better. If nothing else. Should sound better.
That’s the stock GM Regular Production Order for a factory L68 engine option in 1969. With some upgrades it was north of that factory spec.
Very nice!

That's a well thought out engine to run a 500+ lift.
I used to know a guy that bought a 66 mustang. It had a 600 lift cam and thing did wheelies.
My big cam engine was an atv engine 500cc built a 650cc
I spent a fortune building it.
I did the hole 9 yards myself.
Split the cases. Sent the crank out to be lightened and 4 mil. Stroke.
Bigbore kit had 4" piston.
Cams 488 lift 288 on the intake duration, 41mm ti intake valves.
On a chassis dyno it made 72 hp @10,000 rpm .
My old Ford 61 f100 had a 302 but mostly stock. Headers, 4 barrel.
No classic car for me.
Don O that's a machine as wheel as 440 6 pack challenger.

I had a 65 mustang in high-school but a few years later I bought a 71 Mach 1.
That was my classic car. Long gone.
