Well today was going to be the dyno day for the 427. Only to get held back by a malfunctioning wiring harness not reading the cam position sensor. Then on the way home, after about 30 miles, the motor started ticking very loudly, could hear it over the exhaust. Lost power, car vibrates and shakes badly under any kind of power, oil pressure has dropped a little, and the converter is locking up wayy early. Robert will be coming hopefully monday with his trailer to take it back to the shop (very nice of him) and see if they can figure it out. I don't know what the problem is, but I do know its the kind that the instant you hear it, your heart falls into the pit of your stomach.

Well they had stethoscopes on the motor trying to find the ticking sound, but its not doing it anymore? Looks like a fouled O2 sensor, and that explains the shuddering and power loss. However it doesn't explain the noise and low oil pressure. They are dropping the pan tomorrow and cutting open the filter.
