Re: Tenn. State Trooper - 427 Biscayne 1966 ?
I had a 67 396 block with a suffix code that I could not find in any book. After I put it on eBay (with a 67 Chevelle) someone emailed me a picture of a P-O-P with the same suffix on it, and the orginal buyer was the Illinois Dept. of Public Safety. After more research it turned out that the code was for a 350 HP (Holley carb) 396 for full size police car use only. I guess the cops wanted more than a 325HP 396 with a quad, but the guys holding the purse-strings wouldn't spring for the cost of putting 427's in the fleet. So maybe this 66 has a special 396 under the hood too?

If they had put the 427s in them the boys in the maintenence shop would have swapped them all out for L35s and gone racin' with the 427s!

Cool Picture!
Jeff, Do you still have the block or the picture of that POP? My brother and I have been researching these COPO cngine/tranny codes for several years now and examples don't come along often. On another note, I have a set of NOS 427 flags at home with a black painted background. I have seen them both ways, of course the majority have been red though. steve

I also have a set of 427 emblems with the crossed flags...but the flags are smaller and these smaller versions ( I believe ) went on the front fender of a 1966 corvette.
....I pick up my 1966 Belair "post car" tomorrow from the upholstery shop....new "Cameo Beige" paint and new "Fawn" vinyl interior...new dual snorkel air cleaner with a big block and 4 speed, F41 suspension, power disc brakes and power steering.....YeeeeHaaaaawww!
