This truck has been in the family for 20 years plus. we are chevy guys (and dolls) the nicest feature of this truck is the 1961 327 that somebody adapted (not very well) into the original set-up. Body off, catalog in hand, I still havn't made up my mind. Your thoughts and experience would be much appreciated. Having computer problems with pictures, hope to resolve tem soon. Ironhead

Ironhead, welcome to the BOLT lots of great people with a lots of knowledge. I have a 68 with a 327, 325hp with a 700R4 matched to the engine and I am very pleased with the ride and performance of the engine. Best of luck and keep asking questions.

I've had two 327's, one was mated to a 350 in a '49, the other is in my current project hooked up to a 700r4. My experience is that this is a great engine. Good luck!

I was reading a month or so ago in a magazine article about a 700r4 behind a 283 with a 2 barrel carb. They really had great gas mileage with it.

I've always thought the 327 (as well as 283's) were great engines.
