According to Bob Lang with NHRA D1 and a west coast tech guy he brought into the conversation, I could run the 427 if I take the SS trim off and turn it into a plain Jane Malibu ( which I am not willing to do ). The 427 was only available as as COPO in basic Chevelle/Malibu trim. So in other words, if I build it as a 427 car, it can't look like a SS. All that said, if I understand the rules correctly, I should be able to squeeze about 413 inches out of a "396", given the plus minus fudge factor on bore and stroke.
