I do agree that 427 is real sharp looking (in the GM Performance dress). And I bet it delivers performance that owns up to it's good looks. I don't hate aftermarket dress-up stuff,I also do that sometimes. Just sayin, nothing wrong with a stock look (and fooling people with it is way cool). I know one thing,IMO dressing up a stock motor is pure lame. No offense intended,that's just my opinion. If I can only have one I'll take "go" over "show"

Just for the record, my motor is built, not bought... The only thing that is GM Performance is the front runner system. No offense taken here, just saying it's not a store bought crate motor.
