[Old Chevy Lover]

Personally, I think 327's are about the top of the line for Chevy Small Blocks. They came factory with a steel crank, and they have the best of 2 worlds, the short stroke from the smalled cubic inch engines, but the bigger bore size of the 350. I would jump on a 327 for $200 in a minute, even if it needed rebuilt. They are getting hard to come by, around here anyway.
