I managed to get another 427 off of Craigslist the other day. I got it for a great deal, did a compression test on it and it looked good. I pulled it apart and there are still cross hatches in the cylinders, the story was it was pulled out of a C65 that was scrapped and the engine ran strong but the truck was rusted out. Now that I have it apart I believe everything the guy I bought it from told me about it. I'm going to put all new gaskets in it, clean it up and drop it in. It came complete carb (newish carb) to pan with a transmission. The trans has the same dual disc clutch that my original trans has. I have a spare for everything now.
