Just how quick were the 273 Commando's in the Quarter-Mile.

I have a 273 kicking around. Since the mid 70s. Never gave it a thought. I bought it for 2 things; the rocker gear, and the 904 trunion tranny. Stuck em both on a 340, and swapped it into a 65 Valiant wagon. I didn't have $500 in it. Boy-O-boy did that little wagon go. Right up until the tranny started slipping. I dropped a slanty into it and sold it to my brother.He was 10 years younger than me, and wasn't into fast cars.He loved motorbikes. Yup that 273's been taking up floorspace for 40 years! Where has the time gone?

Yet another 273 thread pigged up "by 360 is best" BS. An answer to a question never asked.
