Sell the camel humps and get something with the accessory holes.

Are those the roller rockers you were talking about? They look like Comp Cams Magnum roller-tip rockers.

I hope you weren't planning on using those motor mounts.

"High performance" 327's didn't use 010 blocks. By that time, 327's were 2bbl base V8's in full size passenger cars and light trucks. Got cast cranks instead of the previous steel in the small journal versions. Not a biggie, just a detail. You can build anything, but some terms imply something that may not be true.

Re: New motor for my 89 camaro

high performance is what it said when i ran the numbers, but thanks for clearing that up for me, i think its kinda neat to see the history on motors, but i dont know a good site.
