Engine notes: The first month of production engines were rated at 450hp, and later at 425hp. The current engine is not matching numbers, it is a CE replacement. It has the correct intake manifold (3885060) for the L72 engine with Winter Foundry Snowflake logo and rare cylinder heads (3904391), which were used on a 427 cid engine with 3x2 carburetor system (L71). These are very rare Chevrolet high performance heads!
