Jeff I know you run Mopar, but there was a reason that the big block cars were sparce, "Insurance". I believe that there are now more 396/375 cars around then were ever built by Chevy. Forget about a 427/425, never existed!

248H Stock?

What do you mean never existed? I almost bought one in 69. Sport Chev. in Md. had 6 or 8 COPO 427 Camaros on the lot and 5 427 COPO Chevelles. One ZL-1 sitting outside in front of the showroom. Dont I wish I had bought one of those but I was driving a brand new Vette at the time so the insurance couldnt have been any worse than mine. My 68 Z-28 insurance was about the same as the Vette. 350 cubes and 350 HP with a 4 speed in the Vette. I was about 23 years old at that time and single.
