Default 427 badges pics

Snapped a couple of pics, it was kind of bright outside. Alot of folks told me to put them on the fenders, but I kinda like them there at the bottom.

Haha. I've had a couple of guys see the badge and ask me how I got a big block chevy in that car. Then I would completely lose them when I tried to explain about bore and stroke

I can assure you that my car is not a sleeper, with or without the badges lol. The ground shakes and the squirrels fall out of the trees when I fire it up.

LOL. I get the same thing when I try explain how I achieved 402 ci. You should put the badges on the fender. Like you mentioned the car is not a sleeper, so might as well let everyone know what's under the hood. I put one 6.6 badge on the rear bumper.

Cliff is his name, it went 9's with a tiny burnout and spinning half of the way. Full weight car too, no weight reduction really.

Since you have a bad *** 427 setup that a lot of people here would want (Including me!), you can pretty much put the emblems wherever the **** you want!

Very nice ride, very nice setup!

I like them where they are, but they'd also look cool where 842TA mentioned.

Those wheels/emblems/brakes are the perfect combo, all the best of the best so to speak, very well done. Got any more pics?
