The 327 has a 6 3/4 inch balancer and the 408 has an 8 inch. It looks like the 8 inch balancer might be close to the sway bar if installed as is.In the first place, it's a big block, so the engine will be a lot stronger. Also, look at it dollar for dollar, the SBC has to be built up to get 383 cubic inches. The MOPAR starts there. The MOPAR has much better cooling, due to the full length water jackets in the block.

The 377 is more peaky while the 406 has a broad power band. The HP per cubic inch ratio doesn't really mean a whole lot since we're talking small blocks and the all weigh pretty close to the same. I've had both. My car is faster with a 406 than it ever was with the 377.SBC: 3.75 vs. 3.85 vs. 4.00 stroke. I'm in the process of building / buying a SBC 400 based short block.
