SorryI was wrong, this car did not come with a 421. It still has the original motor which is a 389, this is confirmed by the Protect-O-Plate WE 360221, which matches the block. We never verified, just thought it was a 421 due to badge on center console. I can send photo's toanyone to confirm.

Thank you - sorry for the confusion.
