I have a perfectly good 318 in my '66 Barracuda. It starts and runs consistently, gets decent mileage, but is stock 2 bbl setup. I may have access to an unrestored 273 Commando in unknown condition at a relatively cheap price, I think.
For my purposes I only really want my car to sound decent and have good torque/speed up to about 35-40 mph. It's just going to be a street driver that I can take to club events etc.
Given these conditions what direction would you go?
A) Mild build on the 318 with cam, intake, and carb?
B) Take a chance on the 273 Commando knowing that it might need rebuilding and new pistions etc.
Thanks
