How would these perform on a 327ci with flat top piston ?

They're good castings but would have low compression ratio for a 327 with flat tops. They're better suited for a 350 or 400.

You can get a good street compression ratio with these heads on a 327 if you have them flat milled .060".
This should reduce the chamber volume to 67cc's.
On a .030" over flat top 327 that is "0 decked" , using a felpro .039"
gasket,, your cr will be 9.4 :1... If the piston is .025" below
deck use a .015" shim gasket (factory type).
They will give good flow when ported.
