Jim, Actually there was a 275hp and 325hp 327 in '67 - the 325hp being the L79 and the 275hp version being the ~base~ 327. My 67 Elky has the 327/275hp. There was no 210hp 327 available in 67 Chevelles; there was a 210hp 327 in the Camaro but it had a "MA" engine suffix code. The SS327 would be a Camaro since the 67 Chevelle SS specified the 396 minimum (at least in the US) but the Camaro could be ordered with SS trim and the 327. BTW, the EA code was used from 65 to 68 327/275 w/o heavy duty clutch in Chevelles.
