Genesis 427 FE engine blocks retain the original appearance of the Ford OE 427 side oiler and are capable of excellent performance and reliability. Iron blocks can be machined from 4.120” to 4.440” bore; the aluminum version can be machined from 4.223” to 4.310” and either block will accept up to a 4.500” stroke. The Iron block weighs 230 lbs while the aluminum version is just 118 lbs. Siamesed cylinders with .600” thick decks and extra material added to the crank saddles, pan rails, and cylinder walls are some of the upgrades to this tried and true design. Includes 2 bolt front and rear main caps with cross-bolted interior caps. Castings have the 1965 casting number “CSAE-H” in the OE position and will accept original timing covers, engine mounts and accessory brackets for that period correct look.
