Hello I need some help to verify what kind of parts I have and if they are original or reproductions and if they are correct for a 67 GT500 except the 427 rods etc I know the GT500 was always a 428 PI. Here are some pictures of it.

The Master Cylinder and Brake Distribution Block look correct to me.

The valve cover with part of the bottom ridge machined off would seem to be correct too.

    As stated the crankshaft is the O.E.M. 427 steel unit, but also appears to have been polished excessively, so be sure to inspect it closely dimensionally before use.

    As stated the rods are the "LeMans" rods, but appear to have had the balancing correction executed rather crudely (aka. Hack & Wack), so maybe a little cleanup work would be advised prior to use.

    I am not able to state as to the correctness for the 1967 GT500, of the oil filter adapter, but I can state that it is not the preferred unit from an oil flow perspective, so if you are going to have a nonstandard engine configuration this would be an item, right or wrong that I would change.    ;)
