Re: Need some help identifying a 327 code :-)

I was told It is a destroked 350 (327), not a 350 crank so not stock but block, still 4in bore... Shorter stroke. It has performer rpm dual plane intake, 4brl holly sa 650, hooker lt headers, camel hump heads 461 I think or 462 I will know when I take off covers, electric fan, stall is because you get more torque at 2500 to wheels on a th350 with a 327. I'm fairly sure it has a small cam in it. This is what I remember seeing on it. I'm working a shut down till tomorrow and will have time to check more and maybe get inside the engine sunday. From what I remember 327s had hard time idling on an auto trans without a stall I think that is why it was added on the truck when swap was done, not sure. I also saw a new starter and heavy duty fly when I slid under cab. I was told the destroked 350 was built as a comp elminator for a camaro, 327 was max ci. This engine was directly dropped in. Heads dont have accessory hole for my compressor too :-/ but compressor was still given to me when I bought truck. I need to flush engine again and fluids, gave it new oil last sat and new fuel filter, tune the carb some more. Truck starts on first turn no prob. I plan on all new suspension, shocks, and brakes soon, rear disk conversion as well when I get to it.
