what would be better a 1969 327 with vortec heads and a hot cam or a lo5?

The lo5 with the same parts as the 327 will make more hp.

You could sell the 69 327 for a large sum of money if you had your hands on it because of the large journal. That would buy you a 350 and some performance goodies to go with it.

Plus aren't parts a lot harder to find and more expensive for the 327 than the 350?

The 327, no doubt about it.

RBob.

i would say the 327, but then that is what i run in my car, so i might have a biased opinion

They share the majority of their parts with every other SBC

I gots a 69 327 Large journal hi-nickel block, parts arent any more expensive then the 350. stage 3 rvcam, 10.5:1cr if you have good heads(preferably the hi-nickel hump heads) on a 327 then dont bother getting vortec's. the stock intake is worthless.
