The 366,396,402 and 427 are in the same Chevy engine family but the 454 is a differant engine.

| | An optional 454 could be ordered in the C70 back in 1979-80.... When it came time to replace a 454, a new 427 could be bolted into place.. same manifolds, water pump, etc.. 366 was often replaced with a 427 also.. Wasn't uncommon to have a few new 427 crate engines stored along the wall in one of my stalls.. Those medium duty (40-50-60-70 series) 454 truck engines were a different beast than the light duty (10-20-30 series) 454 engines.

| The company I worked for ran 283,327 and 350s in the early 70's when I started working. Then in the early 80s they run 366,396 and 427s in Chevy & GMC tractors. Also in the early 80 they bought 7 L series Ford s powered by 370v4 gas engine. When those engines gave out they repowered them with Chevy 427s. They did try 429 Ford and 454 Chevy and found the 427 Chevy to be more reliable. Mid 80s on up they went to tractors powered with 3208 cats,IH DT466and different models of Cummins engines. The 38 years I worked for the company I liked the Chevy 366 and IH DT466 engines the best. The tractor I drove with the Chevy 366 was a stronger pulling engine than some of the 427s.
