Dove Engineering makes them, or at least they used to. The complete heads, including followers and valves, etc... came to $10K. I can't find their website though, so maybe they have gone belly up. I don't know.

I think he was refering to another option outside of the 427

you cant buy them crate unless maybe dove offers them. the 427sohc used the side oiler block, which is possible to puchace at 4-5k so youre looking at a 15k motor (maybe 10k if you can find an excellent deal on some of the parts)from the info these guys just showed me so if you want one you would have to make sure you know what your doing and build 2 of them... the first one to sell and the better one to keep
