For those that have seen the car, I see the hood is down, but does anyone know if it has a 390, or 427 engine? It supposedly came from the factory with a 390, but in a You Tube video I was watching recently, Steve's son said it had a 427. If so, it would have had to have an engine swap because Kevin Marti says there were no factory W code 427's. 428's yes, but no 427's. Apparently there were quite a few modifications to make it chase ready, but was an engine swap one of them?
