Summing the two numbers, you are left with a residue of $2$ when adding $7$ and $3$. Carrying over $1$, you once again have a residue of $2$ and carry over $1$. \begin{array}{c@{}c@{}c@{}c@{}c} & &_{1} & _{1}& \\ & & 3& 2 & 7_8 \\ &+ & & 7 & 3_8 \\ \cline{2-5} && 4& 2 & 2_8 \\ \end{array}Therefore, the sum is $\boxed{422_8}$.
