Default Re: 427 Caprice lead now w/ pics!
Assuming the trans is original to the car it is a 335 hp 427 which would be normal in a Caprice or non SS Impala. Trans is a CQ code. The car likely has a 2:73 rear as they were pretty common with that engine/trans combo. Pretty rough car and not financially worth restoring but would be a great parts car.
