327 and a Turbo 350 (I'm guessing).
Great engine. Didn't know it was still available in 1971.
Power steering pump on there somewhere?



Yessir, correct on all accounts.

This isn't the 327 that came factory with the car however, it came out of a 1965 Corvette so it makes around 350 HP and has a mild cam.

Find the stamp pad on the front RH side of the block behind the alternator and it will have the VIN of the car it was removed from. The VIN stamp will confirm it was removed from a Vette and the engine ID and suffix will tell you which HP version and what transmission it was mated with originally from the factory. There were 4 options for HP ratings for the 327 engine in the 65 vette. 300, 350, 365, 375(FI)
Nice car. Enjoy a vintage piece of history.
