love it!
dammmnmnmmnm! GOD
sounds wicked..and awesome shifting
i’d go with a 454 block 396 crank and 427 domed pistons… its what i’ve got in my 69 copo/yenko replica. it gives you a 427 with the most flexibility as far as horsepower and torque the best possible combo…
does this car have chambered exhaust
454s and 427s are the same blocks, different cranks. i do not think you can put a 396 crank into a 454 or 427. they are balanced differently.
yeah no… there is a 454 block that’ll share the crank of the 427 but it is completely different to the actual 427 block… there’s two different blocks and yes you can put a 396 crank into a 454 block… i’ve done it. you’re right though it needs alot of blueprinting and balancing but its possible.
what is the difference between the blocks?
the difference being the 4.00 stroke for the 454 & 3.76 stroke for the 427 bores are the same but not all cranks are interchangeable as some have different counterweights for different bore sizes. the 427 corvette motor has a differently balanced crank and tune than if it was per say put in a chevelle or a nova… its gonna be tuned down… but anyway the 396 cranks counter weights are a bit thicker than the 427 but you need balance. heads dont really matter in this case. although id go 427s
the block itself has little difference in what cues and symbols they put on the block to consider an authentic block. but no not all 454/427s are the same. they started doing so with the LS engines if i’m correct. but i do know that there are 2 different blocks based also on the fact that the 454 was introduced in 1970. the yenko camaros used corvette 427s as i’m sure you know and it was a specific block…. i’m just overloading in information a bit. sorry if it kind of doesn’t make sense lol
thanks for the info! i like to learn new things. most of that i knew already.
i knew that about the bore and stroke. i was talking about stock bore and stroke. thanks for the info.
LOL yeah no problem its always good to be knowledgeable about whatever it is you’re dedicating yourself to. knowledge is power so ha yeah i love learning new things. but yeah hope it helped somewhat. i know like the 427 had a special “winter” block that had a snowflake on the block and on the intake manifold. ha
i have that intake on my velle……….
NO SHIT that intake is valuable… take care of it. it probably came off what was supposed to be a vette or copo car… what year is the chevelle?
i got it still in the box, long story. i have a 71 454 ss chevelle……
wow… thats pretty bad ass.
@killian7575
my dad just sold his 70 SS chevelle with the 454. red with black stripes. dont sell your car
That’s what a car is supposed to sound like. I’m tired of all the ricers around my neighborhood.
@Revo21384 – It’s worth more than that.
Indeed. Demand has gone up quite a bit in 9 months
@Revo21384 – The rich buy and sell these cars as commodities. They aren’t cars anymore, (to them anyway), they are investments. Everything is about money to them.
A sad way to live.
True that. Sadder yet is that in most cases, the people that can truly appreciate works of art like this Yenko, can’t afford them. Instead of being prized possessions, these cars become tokens of collection… Cosmic injustice.
