273 upgrade to 4bbl?
I picked up a really solid 1967 Dart GT with the original 273 (auto) with 84k miles. I have been driving it quite a bit and love it! ❤️ However, it doesn't have much power/acceleration. As time permits, I plan on upgrading to disk brakes, 4.5 bolt pattern wheels, and an 8-3/4 rear end. But until then I really don't want to do too much to the motor for now. I have been kicking around the idea of getting an edelbrock performer intake and small 4bbl to see if it gives it a little more "pep". The car already came with a dual exhaust system, so I figure the 2bbl is the main performance restriction currently. Just posting to hear if others have had experiences with this kind of upgrade.
