Thread: Chevy 327 build

Tweet

My machinist has over 40 years experience in building blocks, and I am in contact with him all the time. I will read up on what people post here as well for some tips because we all can always learn from peoples builds. I'm not just going to throw parts at a car and hope it works. As far as a cam, once I figure out what car I'm getting and if I'm going stick or auto, then I will make my decision. I want the most radical cam for my build, and that's not an outrageous comment. RadicL doesn't mean big cam picked out of summit and thrown in. I order most of my stuff from my machine shop guy.
As far as my block. It came home with me all bored and tanked. Crank was ground .020 mains and .010 rods and polished. Waiting for my main and rod bearings to come in the. Plastigage and set in the crank, put on oil pan and pump, then paint. After that i order a set of eagle rods and then it eill sit and wait until I pick up my car. Leaning towards a 70-73 camaro, but I may pick up a nova based on availability. Nothing later than a 73.
