LS327 Crate Short Block Motor
So in an attempt to recreate his motor in the sim, I had to do some research. I came across the Chevy LS327 on their website.
So with a lot of the information in front of me, I decided to throw this one into automation, and tweak it a bit. The links with the information I got are as follows:

This is where I got the main information from. Even though it's labeled as a 327, the game calculates it to 325 CI

This is where I got the information to finish off the short block end of the deal
The rest is based on complete speculation and modification to fit peak power output. The peak RPMs are off a bit, but in the general vicinity.
The Cam profile, Fuel Mixture, and Ignition Timing might not be that of the block in real life, but those were the main components I fiddled with to get the right power peaks.
Feel free to input any suggestions for straightening out that torque curve, or adjustments to any of the aforementioned settings to create more of a realistic simulation of the engine!
Thanks in advance!
