Not Ranked
I just finished replacing my 428 with a bored out 390 block. It's getting hard to find a 390 block with a well enough balanced core to bore to a full 4.230 and build a 427. We finally found a 390 with enough meat to bore to 4.100 comforably, added Diamond pistons and SCAT rods. Reworked the heads and balanced the rotating assembly. All in all I came out around $7000 when it was all said and done. Actual displacement is about 418 cuIn. HP runs right at 485. Plenty for street use.
