Correct me if I am wrong
The 327 chev motor was a good performance engine but the 2 we got were just low compression ones, the first lot of HK 327 were 8.75:1 and then the last few months got the 8.5:1

The yanks got the high performance 327 and they had an answer to our falcon GT-HO with even higher performance 350 than we got hear.

How about if we got a real true Bathurst HG350 monaro with one of them fuel injected 350 they had in the USA.

My pick would be any V8 engined Torana.253,308. The BA Boss, as pathetically horrible as it is,with its all aussie BTR 4 speed auto, isnt available anywhere else either. That qualifies as an Aussie engine, and I`ll cop it as a dropkick Ford Aussie donk. Jeeez gimme a single barrel 253 anyday....oh wait, maybe the EFI 250 first.
