    Wrong heads for a 273

    I believe it will lower your compression a bit.

    Carb choice

    The mounting holes on the early 273 (64-67) heads are at a different angle then later model heads so your intake won't line up. I think you can drill out the holes to make it fit. The carb studs are different then a standard Holley, but AFB or Edelbrock will have a dual bolt pattern and will...

    Valve Covers

    To answer the OP questions, most twist on breathers should work on these, since the are the same as the MP's there'll work too. These are a couple of examples of breathers that will work.

    Need help with Kevko oil pickup!

    I just talked to Josh at Kevko and although he would have liked it if left the tab on since the stock didn't have the tab he guessed it would be ok to cut it off. He also told me that there should be a place to mount it on a stock main bolt, but I've never seen this? Has anyone else? I'm also...

    Need help with Kevko oil pickup!

    Not sure that would work the main nut is taller the the factory bolt head so it might not line up, and that is what was intended to drill and tapped a bolt in the head bolt?

    I'll tell ya it's always something! :BangHead: I'm installing a Kevko M302 oil pan on 360 block with a windage tray. The Kevko pickup has a tab that I asumme is supposed to mount to the Main bolt? The problem is that the windage is in the way: So that's ok (I think) I'll just remove the...

    New oil pressure switch doesn’t fit...318 LA

    If If you had to remove the switch you do have the option to leave the Permatexed fitting in place, that is if get a wrench in there to hold it, it's pretty tight back there:eek:

    Oil pan options

    So I made a homemade baffle in the stock oil pan, but it sprung a leak where I welded the plate in. So I'm going to replace the pan. It looks like if I can remove the center link I can remove the pan without removing the engine, anyone know if this is possible? I have a 65 Barracuda with a 408...

    New oil pressure switch doesn’t fit...318 LA

    You could use a step up brass NPT bushing (1/8-1/4). They usually have a flat so if it bottoms out then use an impregnated washer ( or a copper washer for that matter) to form a seal. Then use a step down bushing to 1/8 again to mount you're switch. It will raise it up a bit but you're light...

    keep in mind, that's a hydraulic cam, where as the 273 is solid

    408 build

    If you're goal is 500hp you'll have to give low end torque to get that peak hp at a higher RPM. With a 3.23, it will drive like a pig at low rpm's on the street even with a high stall converter. Ask me how I know.

    Need to borrow a sb flywheel ASAP! (in NC)

    Well I think 67Dart273 is right, you do need a 727 converter. After going through the trouble of cutting open the 98 dakota transmission converter (which I believe is based on a 904, correct me if I'm wrong ) its not even close I wish I read 67Dart273 post before I did all that :BangHead: ...
