Crankshaft interchangeability
By Jeff - 12/17/2003 10:50:52 PM; IP 65.26.242.175
Hello, Newbie here and to FE's. I have gotten my hands on a 427 s/o (bare block with bearing caps) along with a factory 2 x 4 alum. intake with carbs, linkage, logs and air cleaner. I am currently having the block inspected by a local reputable speed shop. My question to the forum is will a 390 crank work in this block. I intend to put it in a Cobra I am building. I would like to get approx. 500 hp. Car will be mainly street driven, occasional trip to Road America. Need guidance on best way to go for a rotating set up. Sorry for being so long winded. Any help is much appreciated. Jeff
