Live and learn... bought a 327

[Monte's62]

Scuderia, I have a 64 small journal 327 running an Edelbrock performer rpm intake, 600cfm carb, and the ram horn manifolds with the alternator bracket bolted on the end. I don't have the original adjusting bracket so I just made one temporary until I get one. My heads are later model than yours with accessory holes, so you may need a bracket bolted from your water pump.

Thanks for the response! Are your exhaust manifolds the repo ones like dorman? Any issues bolting them up? I noticed varying opinions on them. Seems the used original 2" ones are cheap but the OEM 2-1/2" are freaking like gold.
Which carb did you go with? Manual or electric choke? I kind of want to keep my manual choke...

If that 585 holly is a vett org I would sell it to some resto guy. rebuild would be fine also sense you already have it.

I pulled out the manifolds and the lower alternator bracket. I think I have all the other pulleys and brackets and if any one has the part numbers I'll verify what I have.

Don,

I'm parting out a '67 327 out of a Camaro. It was in my dad's '57 Belair and the block was cracked. So I have a bunch of parts that I'd like to get rid of. I have a small journal crankshaft that has just been ground w/ new bearings. I have most of the tin parts, oil pan, timing cover, I think I have some valve covers. Let me know if you're interested, and we can talk price. Plus I'm in the Bay Area (Antioch).

Scuderia, I really don't know what these manifolds are. I see a GM on them, but they are definitely 2 inch. They were on it when I bought the truck. However, I did not have any issues bolting them on. They fit nice. Also, I have a manual choke. I will send some better pics of the alternator bracket on the end of the manifold. its mocked up now because I am looking for an adjustment bracket.

Hi ya Jimmy, wondering what you came up with? thanks

[Troy Sr]

Hey Don,

I looked at my stuff this weekend and the timing cover was a aftermarket chrome unit, as were the valve covers. The oil pan is original, and I have some rams horn exhaust manifolds if you're interested in them. Let me know.

Thanks Troy,
What size are the ram horns? OEM or aftermarket? do they have mount for the alternator? Don

I'll have to measure them, and I believe they are GM and they do have the mounting bosses for an alternator but not the actual mount. I measure them and get some pictures.

Hello Don,

No problem, I totally understand.

Forgot to post this pic. This is a set of 66 manifolds with the lower alternator bracket.

Thanks Jimmy, they look to be in pretty good shape. What are you thinking for them?
