Someone may look at a casting number such as 3955272 or 3956618 and the date and consider there block a 327 since gm made both 327 and 350 with these it would be possible to find a 4 bolt that someone just thought was a 327

Ya, OK glad you are convinced. The gentleman is selling a CE 283 for a excellent price.They were 2 bolt period and small journal.Perfect for a early impala etc.
I am sure he knows what he is selling.
3956618 would have a 4 inch bore vs 3.875 on the 283 and large journal after april 68 vs small on the 283.618 I don't recall being 4 bolt until 69 and never in a 327
3955272 was a 396 the last time I looked.ButI know nothing about small blocks.
Keep polishing those $10,000 cranks
