    O.K. I'll bite. I thought a 427 was a stroked down 454, If thats the case 496 is easy. My 427 has been to 5.9 k ,for a while, several times,with "stock" dimple (ls6) rods. If your gonna sling a 496 that tight (rpm's) you better get ready to lay down some $. Or is a 427 a stroked up 396? Hey longstr what did you buy?????

    Well actually a 427 is a 427...but a 454 is a 427 factory stroker.
    Some 427s even used the 454 block with the 7.4L cast into it. Not sure how common that was though.
