:bang Every time I think I have a plan, something happens...

A 69 square port 427 fell in my lap - free! The guy wants the aftermarket intake manifold, valve covers, and roller rockers once i remove them. But, everything else is mine. Looks like the Malibu is going to be a COPO tribute.

:drive

#7 is going to need a sleeve, and the pistons are junk. Still can't complain about a free engine.

427 carnage...

Image

This piston never met a valve it didn't like. :lol:

Image

This one is pretty beat up to... looks a bolt bounced off if it.

Image

The heads look great. I believe that the pistons are used junk out of another engine.

at least you can sleeve that one hole and be good. I did a pristine 10k mile 69 351w block like that, only it had a nice window to the outside so you could see all the carnage from under the hood lol
