Default 69 Big Block Chevy 427 Complete & Awesome

427 Big Block Chevy engine. This engine came to me in a 73 Tahiti jet boat. The engine was rebuilt well under 100 hours ago. It runs very well.

Block Casting: 3963512 Dated L 30 8 (December 30th, 1968)
Head Casting: 3931063 L 13 8 and A 7 8(Dec 13th, 68 & Jan 7th, 69)

This engine has ARP studs and Crane rocker rockers as shown. I will not know about the internals until I take the engine out of the boat. I am trying to resist taking the boat to the lake since the last thing I need is another boat!


Compression Check is as follows:

1) 195 2) 200 3)190 4)190 5)195 6)190 7) 190 8) 185(battery was weak by this point-probably higher)

I was told this engine was built by a Nascar engine shop in Sonoma, CA. I do not have any receipts for the build but it is definitely a strong engine.

This is a sweet, turn key, carb to pan 427 engine. Great for a resto or hot rod.


$3500 For the carb to pan engine minus exhaust manifolds.

You can also have the currently registered boat and trailer for an extra $1000.
