ZZ427 480HP Crate Engine with 4L70E Transmission Chevrolet Performance CPSZZ4274L70E

New Connect and Cruise Package

Chevrolet Performance is breaking new ground with the launch of the new Connect-and-Cruise crate powertrain systems. They're factory-engineered engine-and-transmission combinations that include all the electronic control modules, wiring harnesses and other key components you need with the simplicity of one part number. Our engineers matched the engines and transmissions for optimal performance and durability, so you can wring out all the horsepower from them with total confidence. The specially calibrated controllers are designed for retrofit installation in older vehicles, for easier and quicker installation and operation, without the need for third-party tuning. Each one comes with an installation kit, including flex plates, covers and other important components to keep typical mid-project parts chasing to a minimum.

Engine and Trans Includes:

There are few engines that conjure up images of greatness like the 427 Chevy big-block. The ZZ427 big-block crate engine brings back all of the good things that you remember about the 427 with a few modern new upgrades. With an updated cast iron block, a 10.1:1 final compression ratio, and an aggressive hydraulic roller camshaft, the ZZ427 offers you outstanding performance while still living on low octane fuel.

The legendary 427" big-block Chevy powered some of the most storied cars in the history of the high performance automobile. This latest version holds true to that tradition, offering you a tough, 4-bolt main cast iron block with an all forged internal rotating assembly. The top half of the engine is the same as the limited edition Anniversary 427 crate engine aluminum oval-port heads that use 2.19" intake and 1.88" exhaust valves work wtih 1.7:1 aluminum roller rockers and a .527" intake/.544" exhaust camshaft. The intake is a matching high-flow aluminum oval-port piece that gets fed the air/fuel mix from a 770-cfm carburetor. An HEI distributor, aluminum water pump, spark plug wires, and a 14" flexplate round out the package. Internally balanced, the ZZ427 will spin to 6000 rpm before it's time for you to shift.

The ZZ427 is an exciting trip back to one of the high points in the history of the Chevrolet big-block. With a conservative rating of 480 horsepower and loads of torque, it's still one of the best crate engines for just about any big-block application.
