I once saw a with my own eyes a standard bore 390, sort of a pewter color with the stands for the cross drilled main cap configuration (the holes were not drilled but it was machined to be drilled). The water jacket said 352 and the back said 66 427. It wasn't sleeved. It had all the beefed up ribbing of a 427.

Good things just happen. This was a 427 side oiler pulled off the 427 line and sent to the 390 line. Who knows why or how or how many there were like it...
