The all-aluminum 427 was the L88. Both of them turned out in excess of 500hp, but shared a GM rating of 425, 10hp below the Tri-power 427. GM pulled this bit of skullduggery to keep their most powerful engines to their factory racing teams.
Keep in mind that those numbers are the GM-inflated gross-hp rating. In truth, the L88 only turned out around 420 net hp. The Tripower didn't even mange to crack 350 net-hp.
