If your talking about a Ford fe 427, made from 1963 to 1968, yes it is a ford fe big block. Fe engines were made from 1958 to 1976. These engines should not be confused with later 385 series big blocks sold as 370, 429 and 460 cid. Fe engines came as 332, 352, 390, 406, 410, 427 and 428 cid for automobles and 359, 360, 361, 389 and 391 cid for medium and heavy duty trucks. As of late many people have been making 427 cubic inch stroker 351 windsor engines, which of course are not big blocks.
is a V8 big block engine in a Chevy or ford in the 1960's to the 1970's
Big block
If it's a mailbu, It could have been a stright 6 cylinder or a 307 V8 or a 350 V8 If it's a SS ( super sport ) It could have a 396 big block or a 454 big block, maybe even a 427 big block depending on what type of SS it was.
NO! The 427 Chevy engine was not sold by GM until 1963. The 427 is a big block engine and the very first big block was the 348 introduced in 1958. The 409 was introduced in 1961. The 427 in limited production only in 1963. The 427 was later released again in 1966 as a production engine. The largest engine every offered in the 1957 Chevy was the 283 V8. You could order this engine with mechanical fuel injection in 1957.
A big block is a series of large displacement V8 engines.
I was looking at one of the Ford websites and it shows : For a 1967 Ford Thunderbird , 7.0 liter / 427 cubic inch V8 engine : ( the spark plugs are gapped at .035 inch )
No the 350ci (5.7L) is a small block V8
No
the 352 engine is the same block style as 330,360,361,390,391 the 351 if its a windsor engine its style is like a 302. if its a 351modified or a 351 Cleveland its like a 400, The above is correct the 352 has the same block from those but also includes 427 non sohc or side oiler and the non cj 428 most common are 352,390,360,428 tri power set ups are scarce
Big block? Small block? Displacement? Not every V8 manufactured by GM is the same.
In the 1970 Chevrolet Impala, the 250 L6, the 350 V8, the 400 V8 (small block) and the 454 V8 (big block).
The 5.7 liter 350 cu. in. Chevrolet V8 is a small block. There is no big block 350.
