273 Carb upgrade

Michael Brisebois said
I Have a 66 Barracuda with the "ol reliable" 273 2bbl. I'd like to go to a 4bbl and NOT really do anything else to the engine.

Not looking to race, or anything like that...just a little more pedal. Anyone care to share an opinion?

LD4B Edelbrock, Carter Competition 9636, 625 CFM, Electronic ignition. That will put some scoot into that fish. Later mods, 920 heads, you can install a .028 headgasket and get the CR up to 9 to 1, Isky style E4 camshaft, Comp Cams has a grind. Of course, the 273 needs some gears to get into the powerband quickly. Good start are some 3.23s

This was one of my 273 projects from years ago
