My favorite SB Chevy is the 350 . They work great in a every day car or truck . But can be made into real power houses street or strip engines . The 327 is also a great fast winding and reliable engine .

I would vote for the 327-365 horse smallblock. That was the basis of many of my own performance projects for 20 years. In a Nova or Corvette the motor could handle most hipo big blocks. I found it to be tough, powerful, and reliable.
When I worked at a Midwestern Chevy dealer in the late sixties, the local sprint car racers would add a Vertex mag, Hilborn injection, and a roller cam to a crate motor, and have a highly competitive engine!Last edited by HOTRODPAINT; 11-13-2007 at 12:38 PM.

Aw man Erik...you should have let them work on the answer some more before revealing it....
What if the "Hokey Pokey" is what it's really all about?

I love this!! Really this is good, Denny and Dave got it right. If sbc's didn't
need the cranks turned so often, nobody would have invented one (391)
at least the real one had a steal crank

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before...
