I haven't raced with them personally. I did read something from another racer recently that said he used to start bending 1 1/16" imput shafts at about 430 hp and sticky tires.

I've found a 427 center oiler block, standard bore.  The guy is saying make an offer but I don't know what a fair price is.  Any suggestions? 

I think I'd rather have the 427 than my CJ block for a stroker foundation - any comments or considerations (other than the lack of hyd oiling on the 427)? 

Thanks

Standard bore makes it worth more, but I've seen CO blocks go for $1200-$1500 on ebay, and not blown up ones either.

Side oilers can be more expensive, and an NOS service block just sold on ebay for $8700. I sold a NOS block that had a little pitting in a few cylinders, NOS $teel crank, and NOS Le Mans rods for $7200 2 weeks ago.

From what I'm told there isn't alot of options right now. Genesis is currently not in business, and Pond does not currently have cast iron blocks in stock. If you need something now its either Pond or Shelby aluminum, or find a good OEM block.

Might have a 1x4 intake we would let go. We are building a Thunderbolt Clone but our engine came with a 4v intake. Shoot me an email and we'll talk about it.

Be careful, as those 406 heads have very small chambers. Even with dished pistons you will be close to 11 to 1 CR.
