Default Help me id this 327sb

Im trying to gather a bit of info on the 327 that came with my 69.

Block number is: 3782870

Date code: I244

Suffix: FI027HO

Mortec and other sites says its a 62-67 327cui 2 bolt main.

The casting date should be something like the 24 sep. 1964.

Can anybode help me with the suffix number on the front plate? I found a place that id it as a 1965 corvette base engine, 250 bhp?. There is no vin number stamped on the front plate other than FI027HO. If its a 65 vette engine the casting date seems a little off? Maybe its a replacement unit?

Anyway will this cam be good for it?

One of the all time great cams for a 327. Installed with 3-4* advance it is also good for pulling stumps.

Don'T know about the cam, but I've purchased items from this guy before, I was pleased with his service.
