Are all 273 V8's the same?

Someone has to clear up wrong information like I just read in your post above!

Just clearing up some Mis-information. Just like correcting misinformation you said a few lines above, THe 2 barrel and 4 barrel pistons are different.m THere was never a "Super Commando" and all 4 barrel engines had domes pistons. All 2 barrel engines had flat tops with 4 valve reliefs. Let's talk about your "Super Commando" that never happened. Dodge made a 275 horse 273 for the 1966 D Dart for drag racing. Plymouth never had a model or a 275 horse engine.

Misinformation My ***! What I stated above is what I have seen with my own eyes.

Take your BS to FBBO I have the engines here. All commandos and not one domed piston on the patch. There are engines apart in the shop here as I speak and original cars on the property. Not one 67 273 ever tore down here or eyed with a bore scope ever had the domed pistons.

I too was under the impression that the 4bbl engines had domed pistons. Until Todd and I started buying 67 barracudas a looking at them. Some of these cars were untouched since new. Then my son called and talked to Egge's. I don't need to load pictures off the web like you I have them in the shop. Like I said take it to FBBO.
