69 327 hp?
#1
Well I built this motor 2 years ago and never did have it on a dyno. Its been in my mud truck ever since. Here is what is done to it, 69 Marine Block(Higher Nickel Block), Steel Crank, Lunati Bracket Master 2 cam, Speed Pro .60 Flat Top Pistons(2 Valve Reliefs), Chromoly Rings, TRW Crank and Rod bearings, Zoom Double Roller Timing Chain, 63 Model 461x heads(Fuelie Heads), Screw In Studs, Comp Cams Roller Tip Rockers, Heavy Duty Valve Springs, Ported and Polished a bit, 1.54,1.94 Stainless Steel Valves, Offenhauser 360 intake(ported to match the heads), edelbrock 750 carb, Longtube Headers, Accel Distributor. Info on the cam, Duration is 246° at .050". LSA is 108°. Lift is .515". I have maybe $700 in the whole build. Found the block, crank, rods, and heads at a junkyard and bought them for $75 and went from there. It turns my 38s over easy with the sm465 4 speed and 5.13 gears. And it like to be reved way up.

Those 327's were great little engines. The production ran from "62 to "69. Any where from 8.5 to 1 compression @ 235 HP all the way to 11.5 to 1 @ 375 HP. Of course the higher HP version were in the vette with the larger cylinder heads and FI, or if a Holley carb was your choice 365 was the number. The 4" bore, 3.25 stroke and a 5.7 rod length was a good combination for a realiable high revving engine. Is yours a small journal 327 or a large journal ?
