Lucky you, close to the spiritual home of every Big Block Chevy!
An old thread but might help someone. They are not 1967, they are one year only like 3917291. They are also 69-70cc heads, not 64cc. They are the...
Thanks VINFAB. Will have a better look at Alan's books, I have only skimmed through them at a friend's place. I do know that he has 3932388 wrong...

Yep. Standard engine on 1969 Impala. It is the same engine as the Camaro's 327/210 (which used the 307's 2BBL carb and intake) but with the 1969...
Despite the first digits switcheroo, these are actually 1969 307/200, 327/210 or 327/235 heads. They are 69cc, 1.72/1.5 valve and 142cc intake...
