Well it figures out to be a 472.59174 so I guess it is between, its closer to the 473, but I to have always called it a 472

Thanks for the info i think it just sounds better also maybe because its the size that sticks in your head over the years from the caddy motors 472 or 500" i used to have my poppa"s 75 coup devill with a 500" 4 barrel carb and my friends thought it was killer we would say its got a 500 cubic inch big block with a four barrel and duel exhaust and yes it would fry the tires from a stop it was the party mobile when i was 19 Twisted Evil
