...all of the 428 exterior stuff will bolt right up to the 427. It is very difficult to identify a 427 from a 428 or a 352 by exterior only. In fact 390s have "352" cast on the left front of the block.
For $300.00 it would make a good boat anchor if there is nothing usable in the engine! Paint it up and put it on an engine stand and brag "yeah, I've got htis 427 ready to go into my car but I just don't have the time..." and P.O. all the wannabees..
