This article kind of skims the top but still not a bad 5 min read.

Good read.
Thanks for sharing!
 
good read, not so sure I agree with all their choices. I think I would have added in the 429SCJ, 4.6 Supercharged Cobra engine and the 5.4 Lightning/Harley Supercharged engines as well. jmo
 
No mention of the cammer either.
 
Incomplete list. Kent 1.6L (Fiesta/Cortina/Pinto/mainstay SCCA racer engine not included?
 
Thanks Vince.

I agree, kind of a broad brush and simplistic approach, but then the list could go on forever - as folks are mentioning.

Loved the pictures! How many times have we all looked under various of our hoods and seen one of those blue guys looking back at us?

For my $.02, two omissions: the big block cammer ( as mentioned ); and the four-cam Indy with bundle-of-snakes - prettiest looking and sounding Ford ever.
 
Yup they do not mention the 255 DOHC 4 cam. All them history making engines for sure.
