The Stay At Home Dad 273 Build.

Great build, nice car, and your daughter is cute as a bug!!! I am an original fan of 273's and I'm glad to see you build one. You two will have lots of fun with that little engine. I watched all your videos. I am surprised at the sound of that Schneider. I really was thinking serious about that cam but I used the Isky E-4 instead because it was closer to the Charger 273 cam. No regrets but I may take mine apart over the winter and back the valve timing back to zero and sneak a bigger bump stick in there. Just for more rpm and attitude at idle. I have the heads and the compression to back it up. I see you used manifolds instead of headers. Me too. Headers make a world of difference over the stock manifolds but not this time around for me. Maybe my next project. The aluminum intake and carb spacer are a plus too. The original cast 273 intakes get so hot and although they are open plenum intakes, they are short. If they were a high rise design they would run cooler and better. Congrats on you good sounding, good looking, and good running 273! toolmanmike
