Default Re: Tenn. State Trooper - 427 Biscayne 1966 ?

427's (and 396's, for that matter) have a great rod/stroke ratio with a relatively long connecting rods and a short stroke. Couple that with the fact that they all have forged steel crankshafts and forged rods and you have the makings of a durable, hard-to-hurt engine!
