I am looking for a complete 427CID 400HP engine for my 1968 roadster. The car was built on April 16, 1968 and would like to find a matching numbers engine for the car. Just wondering where I might find one within driving distance of London, Ont.

Matching numbers would be almost impossible!
If you have a motor it is possible to track down the specific car..
But having the car and trying to find the ONE correct motor is nigh-on impossible.

Date coded may be feasable, but still rare...

Any one of the above within driving distance of your location a possible long-shot at best.

No harm in looking though.
Is the rest of the car correct, numbers wise?

hi Graham, yes the rest of the car is correct other than the differential gears...I installed 3.08 gears for better gas mileage, I am the 2nd owner, so I know it's history.
