When I click that link, it takes me to a forged 350 crank.

Far as I know, the large journal 327 ('68 and '69 only) crank was only produced as a cast crank, in a production car. In those last two years of 327 production, there were no performance variants. Just the low performance 2bbl engine.

Or did the truck 327's get a forged crank?

That's wack. Yesterday it made the right link..I checked it...hold on. Maybe took a screen. #4672?

Listing ended? Sold fast.

Corvette specl hi perf was forged 68 & 69.
Was only $400+80 ship as-is .10 over.
Didn't last long. Couldn't talk myself into it. Not even to resell my 68 part.
No need for TWOx 327 cranks sittin around, much less one.
I gave 330 plus FREE ship for mine / no crank bolt hole / fresh rebuilt .10 over with bearings.. Gotta be drilled. Is real 1968, 327 crank in engine w/o cylinder head bolt holes. think its an 1172? Dont quote me.
Machine shop checked and okayed it thrn agreed to drill it - when I built the engine LOL.
I keep putting it off though. I aim to build a TBI 6 inch rod a 327 for the Blazer. I have 1985 Corvette block, #083 heads, Holley pro_jection intake, L79 cam and 1.5" headers on deck. Need off the shelf rods and 383 pistons but I keep forgetting. Turned off the alerts for that 327 crank search finally, you're on your own now.

NO NO @bucket Bought a new 68 ChevyII in April 68. Ordered it with a 275 Horse 327, 4 speed, am radio, rubber mats and got a "special" steering wheel. About 2 months later the 396 powered ChevyII came out....DAMN!!!! There was a HIPO 325 horse 327 version also available....Both the HIPO 327 and the 396 rides were too much money for my meager budget anyway. This was the car that had a Saginaw 4 spd and a 12 bolt rear, weird combination....This one had a forged steel crank, I know, I saw it up close and personal, when I windowed the block at the race track.

Well there's my problem. For some reason I was thinking that the hi po 327's were gone after '67.

@bucket The 67s and the 68s were rated 25 horses less, 275-325, than the 66 327s at 300-350 HP. Might have had to do with the Quadrajet instead of the AFBs or the Hollys???????? Still was fun for a minute!........and the aforementioned windowed block was NOT warrantied.......WTH???? Bill, the factory warranty Rep, took one look at it and said, "Missed 2nd or did the clutch stick to the floor?".........also wanted to know if I won??......NOT with a hole in the side of the block!!!!

There was a local guy with a gold '67 Impala fastback that had the 275 horse 327, along with a mild stall converter and aluminum Corvette valve covers. I thought that car was so dang cool, lol. When I was 17, I bought a small journal 327 (turned out to be a '67 275 hp too) to replace the original 235 horse 327 in my '69 Impala. I don't know why, but for some reason I thought it would make my boat go fast. I don't remember why, but for some reason I ended up swapping the heads, cam and intake on my stock 327 instead.

No sir. I didn't think to take pictures of anything then. I still own the car and plan on getting it out of long term hibernation soon. It's currently buried in my mother's garage. The '67 327 is long gone... sold too cheap to a buddy, and haven't seen or heard from him in probably 20 years.
