Paul forgot the most obvious external indication that you might be looking at a Ford 427...the heads of the cross bolts, three of them on the lower skirt of each side of the block. BTW, Center Oiler blocks had standard press-in freeze plugs. Most of the side oilers got the screw in plugs. Anyway, the external indication of cross bolt main bearing caps in the most obvious thing to look for if you think you're looking at a 427. Not an absolute though......could be a conversion.
This thread, so far...
