66 Fairlane, very rare. You could get it in low, med, and high rise. High rise was not very streetable and ran like mid 10's on the track. It wasn't actually built by Ford though. It was sort of like a Saleen. Ford manufactured the car, a company bought them and tweeked the 427's and added a fiberglass hood, rear suspension mods and disc brakes on the front not to mention other little amenities. It was built for the strip. I believe the company was Super Ford or that was what they called the car
.
A/C Cobra, 427 side oiler, one of my personal favorites. 2500 lbs 500 hp
63 Galaxie 427, single 4v 405 hp, dual 4v 425 hp
As for the T-Bird, I am not so sure they ever came with a 427 although in the later 60's they came with 428's and 429's
The 427 has NASCAR origins and Ford began using it in it's production cars in the mid 60's although it was very limited. I believe they tried to do away with it and take over with the less potent 428 due to emissions standards but it stuck around for a few years and you can still get your hands on them if you are willing to pay. I just recently looked at a medium riser nascar engine on the net. It was already sold. In race form the 427 would easily produce 1000 hp. As for the Chevy guru who says there is no such thing and only Chevy had a 427, sorry dude, maybe you should be into Toyotas.
I have actually been looking for some time now for the name of the company that built the Super Ford. It seems to me that there were two guys who only built a few of them and I have seen one right here in my town. I just about fainted, he had all the factory paperwork and even an add from 1966. It was all original and was actually raced in the street class for years. He got ahold of it last summer at a car show and is going to restore it. It seems like he said the name of the company who did his was Hall and Moody or Holland Moody or something of that nature. I have looked for info on the web and havn't been able to find anything. I know these cars are real because I have laid hands on one of them and my brother who grew up in the 60's told me about them years ago, back in the 80's when I bought my 66 Fairlane 500XL off of him. You can find the factory 427 Fairlane info on the web but the elusive full race version seems to be in hiding. Many will tell you the car is a fable but it is for real. In fact, if anyone else who is answering this question knows of what I speak and can lead me in the right direction I would appreciate an e-mail if you don't mind. shel_bug66@yahoo.com
Hope this was informative.
I almost forgot, Ford is attempting it again. Check out the 2006 427 concept car.

Fairlanes , galaxies , cougars (kxr7) , cobras .They were never a stock option in the mustang , shelbys,torinos,comets,or t-bird bit could be special ordered if you had the money. the 428 came out in about everything that had a big block option.There was so much machine work and forged parts on the 427's it was very expensive. The 427's had such a large bore with thin cylinder walls that it was not the best choice for a normal street motor because of overheating at slow speeds.

in 1966 and 1967 ford produced the ford fairlane 427.
some where 427Ci/390hp and the bad boys where 427/425hp S andR code cars, race ready from the factory the so the 427 is both a ford and Chevy production motor as to who built it frist i don't know. but if you look at the 64 thunder bolt it also had 427/425-500hp so you decide

Early and mid 60's full size fords and mercurys, but it would have been an option instead of standard equipment. Then there was the 427 Shelby Cobra....

maybe the big cars like the ford galaxie. most cars took a small block or even an inline 6 and if you wanted the big 427 it was a special package.

It came in the big fords. Galaxies, Fairlanes, And yes, even the Thunderbird in the mid-60's, but that was a special edition.

I don't really recall; last generation of F350's, before the superdutys came to scene, used three engines: the 7.3lt power stroke, the 351ci and a big block, what I don't recall is if it was a 427 or a 460ci.
