Any gains adding 1.6 rockers to stock 273?

Small block Mopar pushrod angle is anything BUT optimal.
Any Chevy guy will tell you this. My die hard Chevy brother in law said it's the worse design ever.:soapbox:
He loves to look down his nose to Mopars.But for some reason he gets spanked all the time with his small block Chevy dragster.:icon_fU:

Sorry I got off track. Love the 67 Dart.Had 3 myself. I understand what you want to accomplish.
Nothing wrong with experimentation.Something I love to do.Yes the 273 is a small engine but who cares.
A perfect car to have fun and drive around . The 8 3/4 3.55 will be a big help. HAVE FUN !!!!
