OK,
It just got here. I paid right around $6,000.00 for it, which if it is a real COPO is a smokin' deal, if it is just a restamp 427, then as a running motor, only .10 over, fully rebuilt and complete, than that is OK too.
It will probably be next week before I can pull the head, crusin the coast started today, and I am heading for Mississippi tomorrow.
I guess we can start with is there anything that precludes this from being a Chevelle COPO motor (ie VIN vs dates, any other external clues?)
