273 "New for 64!" introduction
I stayed with my 273 and built it up a little. Read the commando specs and tried to emulate them with a little extra sumtin/sumtin. I am glad I kept it and built it. It is the motor the car was born with, and now it has all the power my little car needs.
One factor in my decision was how powerful I could build 283's and 327's back in my misspent youth. I had a couple screamers. Hint-when you get older you spend a little on the suspension too. My finished 273 engine bay below.
