Unit-
Yes, the 302 was a de-stroked 327. They took the leftover 1967 283 cranks and dropped them into their strongest 1968 327 blocks, added a solid cam and 11:1 pistons and ended up with an engine that reached it's peak hp @ 5800rpm and it's peak torque @ 4200 rpm, which was the highest peak torque rpm of any Chevy engine, big or small block. This engine was designed to get up to high rpms quickly, and to have lots of power when it got there. The Boss 302 had similar treatment. It reached it's peak torque @ 4300 rpm, while the regular 302 reached it's at 2600 rpm.

Take care,
-Chris
