There are lots of other costs with the big block conversion like; heater core, front suspension, exhaust, cooling, hd clutch, etc. Not sure you have to pay $12k for a 427...a well built 454 with a 427 decal on the air cleaner will work just fine. The SB to BB conversion is a well known process...lots of help available here among our members.
