I assumed you were referring to a 327 which is 2 cubic inches less than a 329

Yes I understand what you were getting at now. I'm pretty sure my first comment was in no way rude. If you have to be a douche about it then I guess do as you feel necessary.

I've looked at this myself based more on the old DZ302 formula than the 327 and it seems like it would be a DZ329...could be a beast.

There's a little bit more to the equation than just total displacement. I'd prefer a 32x cube engine in a way over-square configuaration (4" bore x 3.26" stroke) than the 5.3's configuration (3.78" bore x 3.62" stroke), but that's just me.

Not that I'm advocating spends tons of money on less cubes, but it would be a pretty killer short stroke engine. You could use L92 heads and intake but rev the sucker to the moon, making mondo power at the same time.
