I bought some 273 engine parts ,I received a set of part 2465661 pistons wondering what compression ratio is with closed chamber heads and is there enough valve clearance to run them.thank you
 
I purchased 2 blocks one is a standard bore the other has been bored over I have to measure it.

3.630 bore, would get you .005 skirt; loose for cast but about right for forged. Waaaay too loose for hypers but hypers weren't around in the 60s,lol
