Chevy used to make a 427 big block, but the 427 small blocks are made from aftermarket parts.
yes
The legendary 1969 ZL1 427 big block Chevy had a bore/stroke of 4.25" x 3.76" , while the newer LS7 small block has a bore/stroke of 4.125" x 4" , both of which feature aluminum heads and block .
A 350 cid is a small block Chevy engine. A Ford F350 is a one ton truck not an engine.
the weight of my 427 Chevy big block. Which is the same as the 396, 454. This is a bare block we are speaking about. the total weight of a bare block Is right at 200 pounds.
I am not a metalurgist, however, I can provide you with some valueable information here. for 396, 402, 427, and even 454, I think, they actually made 4 different crankshafts. A cast iron, and a steel, with 3/8ths rods, and the same with 7/16ths rods. The latter, in steel will be the strongest, and in the 427. and 454, from GM, redlined at 7000, and 6800, respectively.
NO! The 427 Chevy engine was not sold by GM until 1963. The 427 is a big block engine and the very first big block was the 348 introduced in 1958. The 409 was introduced in 1961. The 427 in limited production only in 1963. The 427 was later released again in 1966 as a production engine. The largest engine every offered in the 1957 Chevy was the 283 V8. You could order this engine with mechanical fuel injection in 1957.
Yes.
From Chevy, in the current vette, 427. In the race world, that I have heard of, 511cid.
The 400 Chevy small block motor should have approximately 390 horse power. It should have 427 foot pounds of torque.
Chevy never made an aluminum block 427..at least not one widely available to the public.. i think you are confusing aluminum block for the aluminum HEAD 427 most commonly known as "yenko" motors for chevelles novas and camaros.. and actually the yenkos were not production models of general motors at all but built by yenko after they left assembly plant.
