Looking to dress up my 360 to look like a 273 and have a more period correct look. Any tips? Pics would help if anyone has done this or something similar such as period correct speed parts
 
The engines look pretty similar already. To disguise a 360 as a 273 you could run 273 valve covers, a 273 air cleaner, and use an intake that doesn't stand out as being aftermarket, then paint it to look correct. I think the 273 super commando was a four barrel and had different valve covers, it should be pretty easy to disguise a 360 as one of those. I'm no 273 expert but I don't think it'd be too hard.
