305 ---> 427
I've searched, but haven't really found anything. Anybody ever do it? I'm sure someone has..

Re: 305 ---> 427
On a serious note, there some folks over on TGO that have done some 383 swaps even one working on putting a 502 in a 3rd gen over there.
big problem I can see is losing the daily usage of it 'cause it probobly won't pass inspections where applicable.

Re: 305 ---> 427
Damn, throw that new LS7 (it's a 427 i believe) in there and you'll be all set. I don't know. How big of cubes has anyone put in a 3rd gen?

Re: 305 ---> 427
Yeah I'd like to know how they did it. My friend's got a 427 in his '79, but that's a little different haha

Re: 305 ---> 427
I figure the bay would be big enough to throw a bigblock in there, with some modifications. Would definitely need to beef up chassis and frame (samething, right?), i believe a motor that big would twist the car in two.

It could have happened while he ran the 396 without the sfc's but he doesn't think so. You'd probably need a roll cage to stabilize the uni-body structure.

Would need a new rear, probably transmission. New/better suspension too.. too big of a project, just go with like a 383 or an LS1.

Re: 305 ---> 427
Are you gonna run fuel injection or carb? Because it will screw your mlg comletely.Say 383 plus a double pumper,uh? Not worth it as an everyday driver even i there are tricks do emissions. Stick a turbo on it its better.
Anything will fit 454-572.
