/// Another Bunch Of 273 Commando Rebuild Questions? ///

Don't be afraid of a 10-10 crank if it needs to be turned. Also, you might be able to buy new Scat I beam rods cheaper than having yours resized and buying ARP rod bolts. The Scat rods already have ARP cap screws instead of bolts and they come all weighing exactly the same thing on both ends and total. That's what I did on my 273, and it was about the only place I saved any money...lol. Good luck with your build. That's gonna be a nice little motor for your car.
