The 327

The 327 was rebuilt in 1988.  It has .030 oversized flat top pistons, and the 350 HP 327 spec cam.  The crankshaft was not ground, only polished and is still using standard size bearings.






The 327 has all the original components that came with the car including cylinder heads, intake manifold, and crank shaft.


The original Carter Quadra-Jet had the lead plugs leak, and it was replaced around 1980.
The POP lists the carburetor manufacturer as Carter, and the Q-Jet now on the car is a Rochester, but is from the same era so it looks correct.
From this Link the numbers on this carb are for a '67 for a Chevrolet with AIR and an automatic.



As far as I can remember, the alternator, starter, and distributor are all original.  I remember rebuilding them as they wore out rather than replacing them.  

The oil filter is the original steel canister type.  Never has been converted to the spin on type filter.
