427 Engine Swap progress *pics*

The build is in its final stages, so I thought I'd share the process as it goes.

Generally, strokers are discussed in one of the Generation-specific engine tech forums - in this case LSx tech.

Everytime I hear 427 I think Ls7. Stroker sounds just as powerful and kickass.
