Original 427's are dime a dozen, don't settle for a suburban block with a 366 crank.

Real 427s are not rare by any means but "a dime a dozen"? If you find a complete rebuildable 427 for under $2500 you've done good.

I'm going to buy the books and educate myself. If I were to find an engine that was supposed to be an original 427 how could verify that it is infact a true 427? Never thought about trying to find an original motor, I thought I'd just buy the correct parts and assemble it. $2,500.00 sounds pretty good for a 427 to me.
