reading engine castings
I'm trying to find the horsepower of my 427.Its in a 69 vette. the plaque on the dash says 427/435 horse. I had a guy want to buy my car and said it only had a 400 horse engine. Can anyone tell me how to read the engine numbers so I can be for sure? Thanks

But what you really have to do is some good ole fashion research. There are lots of books you can buy (ID & parts interchange for instance) and there's lots of info on the web, you just have to look.
