273 Rods work in a 360?

Will 273 Connecting rods work in a 360 with 325 HP? My 360 rods were exposed to the elements for 20 years and would need a lot of work to get back in good condition. But I have a nice set of 273 Rods. The number on the rods is 44109A87.

Will they work? Yes. Are they as heavy? No. Will they be balanced because they are lighter? Hell no. Should you use them? I wouldn't.
