Value question - 1967 427 engine

[b4cmaro]

Guys - just wondering if anyone has an opinion to share as to the value of a 1967 427 (351 casting).
Supposd to be standard bore. Also has an 069 intake and square port heads. Didnt get the casting date on heads/intake, but have no reason to believe they are not original for the block? Any ideas? Trying to determine whether or not to buy it.
Thanks

If you are correct about the heads being original to the block then it should be a 4 bolt main block. The casting number on the heads will make a difference as to the value of the engine. Has the block been decked? Any numbers stamped on the pad? I would guess it's worth at least $5000 or more depending on the heads and the pad stamp.

OK - just looked at it in person
does have square port heads, but I didnt pull the valve cover to check the date.
Pad stamp is TO909IJ 7D135150

Looks like it's an L36 427/385 out of a '67 B-Body w/ an Auto trans..

Yep - thats what my book shows.
How 'bout a value for it. I'm assuming the heads are not the 'original' ones for that block since they are square port. Dang shame we dont know where the body for that engine is so we can match them back up...

The square port heads may be worth more than the rest of the engine. You need to get the casting numbers and dates for the heads.
