Default Re: Help with 327/365...

I don't think GM ever had a car with solid lifters equipped with air.

They built two solid lifter small blocks with a/c 64 & 65 corvette 327/365 and 72 corvette LT1.

Wrong two... the '66 L79 327/350. I find it hard to believe that in ’72 the 350 motor still came with solid lifters. In ‘72 the Z28 had hydraulic lifters which enabled it to have AC for the first time ever.

The 327/365 was replaced by the 327/350 in '66. The same motor continued into '67. AC was an option on both the '65 365 and '66 350hp. A low budget version of the motor was available in '68 but it had hydraulic lifters, cast iron intake and a Quadra-Jet unlike the original edition which had a solid lifters, aluminum intake, and Holley 4 bbl.
