427 marine, bored 20 over
By P - 01/16/2002 10:06:16 AM; IP 66.89.75.42
I found a 427 marine (don't know if it's a center oiler or side oiler, as I havent seen it yet) but the guy says it's been bored 20 over and has Keith Black pistons. The motor is supposedly rebuilt to the 300 HP Chris Craft spec. He did the work himself (owns a machine shop) and the guy has a good reputation and has every indication that he's not trying to hoodwink me, etc.

Being bored 20 over, with custom pistons, what would be the next potential bore job in the event it was needed in the future, with custom pistons of course. He says the motor has 400 hours on it since the rebuild.

Any comments are appreciated!
