Best 273 and 318 builds (NO 360's please)

I'm the original poster for this thread. It's been a while since I've checked in on this post, and I'm thrilled to see how much it's taken off! There really have been a lot of good postings. I do feel like I need to clear the air as to the postings original intent though. I've seen a lot of people arguing over the "RULES" of the thread. So hopefully I can put some of the argument to rest. The only real rules for the post were 273 or 318 block, and no dogging anyone for their choice of a 273 or 318. The goal was to create a safe place for people to ask about 273 or 318 builds without being attacked with the usual "just ditch it and start with a 360!" line.
Some people just want to build up a 273 or 318 period. I personally have always admired the 273 since my older brother took me to a Mopar only drag race when I was 16 and I saw a WILD Valient with 18" numbers down the side reading "273CI" running 11's and beating car after car.
With that said, this really has turned out to be an awsome post. Keep up the good work!
