What a no brainer decision this is......327/275/274 vs 327/350/287!

Did I read the tech sheet correctly because the way I read it for 13 HP here is what you get:

Heads, Valves, CAM, Compression ,an Aluminum High Rise Manifold, and a bit more carb.

Naah..I must be dreaming or is this combination really a gift?

Sure makes me wish I had a 66 deuce 4 speed !

Hey Lynn..How are ya man?!

The way I read the 66 blueprint specs it looks like both combos us a small Holley but the carb notes appear to me that the 350 hp is a bit bigger than the 275 hp.

In 67 the 275 used a QJet which is obviously superior, but the 350 disappeared at the end of 66 unless it hung around in a Corvette but I'm too lazy to look. I know one thing- there was never a 327/350 offered in a Camaro. Not even in a 69 car which which offered the most engine options I have ever seen.

The q-jet is an optional carb in the 66 275 horse combo.

I had A (used) '67 327 / 325(?) in a Malibu. That was a real thorn to 400 hp GTO's and 396-350hp.
And they were still offered in a 67 Nova all models to a SS.

1968 New Body Chevelle it was still rated at 325. Exhaust was the excuse.

Same hyd. #151 hydraulic cam. The 327-350(325) hp engine could give many big blocks a run for their money.

My friend had a *66 4sp Malibu bench with a 327/275 and I put the GM-151-350 hp cam ,poly locks..jetted and a set of OK-Kustom headers.. dam thing was a terror @ high 12s on old MH 'ers and had GTOs running scared.

For most ,that combo had some cred back in 1970.

Yes. A friend of mine had one (original equipment) in a 68 Chevy II and I had one that came out of a Chevelle. Same pistons, heads, (2.02 intakes) and camshaft as the 350 H.P. motor but with a cast intake and Q-Jet.
