Steve,

I've had two cracked 427 blocks. Look for pan rail damage (thrown rod), inspect the main caps, cross bolts and spacers. Is everything there? If you're missing any cross bolt spacers you'll have to have new ones machined. Have it magnafluxed and pressure tested. Ask some questions, was this a marine block? If so, was it in fresh or salt water. That's a decent price but ask for a guarantee.
