Then something was wrong or different with the 350.... or the 350 had more torque and spun the tires more?

Apples to apples Comparison: if you achieve 1.3 HP per Cubic inch on both engines... this is why bigger is better

327 x 1.3 = 425.1 HP
350 x 1.3 = 455 HP

the 327 will not rev higher than the 350 if they are built the same.
the 327's torque peak will be a few hundred RPM's Higher, but will not Rev Higher
