Post 327cui

Hi all.
Tx 4 the answer.
I had a Corvette -71 some years ago (LT1).
That was a great engine and still r.
But i dont know that much about this 327 cui
Is it a modified 283 or somthing?
Could u get it to about 300+ hp without that the whole car is jumping around at 1000 rpm?
I want to drive this car normaly at low speed too.

Regards /Nellie

Most of the 327's sold were in the 275-300hp range and idled smoothly. So this car you're looking at must have a serious cam in it to get a rough idle or it needs some serious tuning.
