I have a 327 out of a 67 Impala with 462 double hump heads. Is it possible to install a 350 crank to give the 327 a 3.48" stroke? The normal stroke on a 327 is 3.25". Since the bore is same(4.000") and the rod length is the same(5.7") it would seem possible to put a 350 crank with 3.48" stroke if there is clearance.
If anyone has knowledge of this please let me know. thanks James <img src="graemlins/pimp.gif" border="0" alt="[pimp]" /> |

A 67 327 should be a small journal crank and all 350's are large journal. You would have to turn the main journals down to fit. Also the 327 rods would for small journal. If you use 327 rods you would have to turn the rod journals down also. You could use 350 rods and not have to turn the rod journals down.

depending on you block you might have a large journal 327 wich is the same journal as a 350 and you will just have a 350 if you swich the crank. would be something to check before you had any machineing done.

Correct, I had a large journal 67 327" motor with a cracked block, the crank was perfect, I put it in a 4 bolt 350 block along with the 327 rods, and I now have a 4 bolt 327" something Chevy never made.

A large journal 327 with a 350 crank IS a 350. You will have to use the 350 pistons as well as the 327 skirts are longer and will hit the crank with the longer stroke. |
