Chevrolet's second generation big-block, the Mark IV had been introduced in 1965 in two 396 cu in (6.5 L) versions. In 1966 Chevrolet added a 427 cu in (7.0 L) version that was available exclusively in the sports car (Corvette) and full-sized (Impala, Bel Air, Biscayne) lines. While a 396 was still available in full-sized cars, the L72 and the ...
Between 1966 and 1969 the L78 was the highest-horsepower engine available in Chevrolet's intermediate line via a Regular Production Option (RPO). Despite this, in 1969 an L72 427 cu in (7.0 L), 425 hp (317 kW) engine could be ordered in an intermediate via a Central Office Production Order (COPO).
This engine was identical to the 425 hp (317 kW) L72 427 (first introduced in 1966), but was fitted with 3×2-barrel Holley carburetors, [31] known as "Tri-Power," in lieu of the L72's single 4-barrel carburetor. Both engines used the same high-lift, long-duration, high-overlap camshaft and large-port, cast-iron heads to maximize cylinder head ...
The 1967 Chevrolet Biscayne 2-door sedan with a 427 under the hood and a 3-speed manual did 0-60 mph in 6.1 seconds, and the quarter mile in 14.6 seconds. A base model 2-door Biscayne would cost you $2,472 (the Impala was $2,728) in 1965. In 1970 a base model Biscayne would cost $2,897 (the Impala was $3,150).
The 260 was designed for economy, and was the first engine option above the Chevrolet 250 straight-six, then later the 3.8 L Buick V6, which was standard fitment in many Oldsmobile models by the late 1970s. While the 260s were not very powerful compared to the larger 350 and 403 V8s, fuel economy was almost as good as the base V6.
