Here is the SPID from one of my my 1967's that clearly states 327 and Im sure others will chime in shortly. I believe my 67 C-30 came with a 283. Im sure you know that those stores are not known for their vintage, classic and antique automobile knowledge...or much else!!!

As far as the motor mounts being welded in...that must have been done by a previous owner....get out the grinder. You can get a set of V-8 engine stands her on the board or on Craigs list for $40 all day long and they bolt right in. A fresh set of motor mounts from the era, line it up with the tranny, set it in ....and a day later you are back on the road!
