Since It's an Impala motor $750 seems on the high side.

Good condition with a good steel crank - maybe
Good condition with a good steel crank and rectangle port heads - It would be a steal

I'm going to assume its has oval port heads since its a 365 hp motor.

The only reason the 427s bring good money is for restos. So you could always luck out and find some one restoring a 427 impala that has to have it. I'd rather stick to 454's. More displacement, cheaper and easier to find.
