    If it were a overhead cam it would have "SOHC" [Single over-head cam] on the cam covers and have the sparkplugs go thru the top of the cam covers. If it is a cammer it is worth $10-12K on up depending on condition. Seen cammers go for as much as $25K. Complete running wedge engines $4-7K depending on what heads and other parts it has.

    Buy the engine for $1000. Before somebody else does. Tonight. Stop reading this and get over there.
    There is no relation whatsoever between the 427 and the 429 engine families. The 427 engine you are inquiring about is very rare and valuable.
