    273 Commando - UTG

    My 1st 1965 Formula S I looked at in 1974 and eventually bought about 1976 had a 4sp and 8 3/4 - I still have the fender tag along with a lot of the parts from it - it had the side swiped as it sat out on the street. My current 1965 S 4 sp is a Feb build with a 7 1/4 posi. Parted a 1966 auto S...

    Parting out A-Bodies

    Sadly one reason I got rid of my matching # 1968 Formula S as a roller - could not fine quarter panels in the 80's and my right side was caved in from bumper to door.

    Room for a Clutch-Fan in a '65?

    Yep seemed to have that set up in a early Cuda....a 1964 with factory A/C that a clutch fan that was put on there at some point trying to keep it cool. Re-did the heads for the guy to unleaded style and that worked pretty good....stop and go traffic getting into the upper 90's was still tuff.

    Is there a simple/easy way to ID a 273 engine vs 318?

    Yep....a picture from the owner might help.....as far as a LA273 and a LA318 a quick look at the intake which will be almost flat on a 273 and a 318 will have more of a rise....if you can't see any #'s.....
