There was a few 427 Novas built from the Fred Gibb 68 9738 COPO automatics. Just how many is still a mystery? Some of these Novas with Dick Harrell badging were the original 396
factory built 375 horsepower, which was upgraded with options available that DHPC was a dealer for or what a customer was willing to pay for including the Crager SS wheels.
The 427 version was available as advertised with the 450 horsepower option or the 500 horsepower version with the 2 4bbl version. More of the Harrell prepared Novas located were original 396 powered than documented 427's.
