This block is one of three displacements, 302/327/350, that underwent a crankshaft bearing diameter transformation for 1968 when the rod-journal size was increased from the 2 in (50.8 mm) diameter small-journal to a 2.1 in (53.3 mm) large-journal and a main-journal size that was increased from 2.3 in (58.4 mm) to 2.45 in (62.2 mm).
The AMC 327 V8 debuted in the 1957 Rambler Rebel, an early "muscle car" Engine bay of a 1963 AMC Ambassador with a 327 V8 four-barrel. The AMC 327 is similar to the 287, but displaces 327 cu in (5.4 L) due to the bore increase to 4 inches (101.6 mm). Unlike the 250, most 327s were produced with hydraulic valve lifters.
The big-block engines initially used a forged crankshaft with a stroke of 3.975" for the 1965-1967 425 and 400 CID versions; starting in 1968, both the 400 cu in (6.6 L) and the 455 cu in (7.5 L) big blocks used a stroke of 4.25 in (108 mm), with crankshaft material changed to cast iron except in a few rare cases.
The crankshaft stroke and main journal size changed among the years with the more popular 389CI and 400CI having a 3.00" diameter main journal and the 421/428/455 sharing a larger 3.25" diameter main journal. The V8 was phased out in 1981, replaced by GM "corporate engines" such as the Chevrolet 305 cu in small block V8.
There were other major differences between the Turbo-Thrift engine and the Stovebolt: Bore spacing matches the Chevrolet small-block V8's 4.4 inches,; Stroke of the 194 and 230 engines is the same 3 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (82.6 mm) as the 327 small-block and 348 big-block V8s
The Chevrolet small-block engine refers to one of the several gasoline-powered vehicle engines manufactured by General Motors. These include: The first or second generation of non-LS Chevrolet small-block engines; The third, fourth, or fifth generation of LS-based GM engines; The Chevrolet Gemini small-block engine
1965 also added another 350 hp small block engine (Option L79) which used hydraulic rather than solid lifters, a milder camshaft and a modestly redesigned smaller oil pan. [25] Otherwise, the 350 hp engine was cosmetically and mechanically identical to the 365 hp engine (Option L76) solid lifter engine.
Output from 2002 to 2004 for the standard output EGJ is 234 hp (174 kW) at 6000 rpm with 241 lb⋅ft (327 N⋅m) of torque at 4400 rpm. Also, for 2002–2004, the EGK 3.5 L Special was built exclusively for the 300M Special, producing 255 hp (190 kW) and 258 lb⋅ft (350 N⋅m).
