Ok, so I am scrounging around for a 390 to put back in my pickup after I pull the built 390 to put in my Cobra, and I cross a standard bore 427 s/o complete for 5k. The guy is selling everything he's ever owned it seems....

Anyway, it's a 68 block (will have the id's this weekend) and he was going to put it in one of his project cars, but priorities changed. He pulled it apart and took it to the machine shop where they honed the cylinders, replaced the bearings, put in a new cam an lifters, and put new rings on it, and then had the heads built. It has a dual quad manifold and carbs too. All for 5K.

Should I do it (I'd have to beg borrow and steal to do it)? What is it worth if it's truly standard bore and standard on the crank? Thoughts?
