I hope to get the engine installed next week, all 180 neck breaking horses. LOL! With the help of a couple of FABO members the engine`s nearly complete and except for a (taller) throttle cable bracket and an air cleaner, it`s ready to go. I want to get the drivetrain in and then I`ll start tackling the RUST again!!!
LOL, yeah..lots of laughs at the 273's expense, but the horsepower was rated differently in those days. Bottom line, my stock commando burned the rubber when those big fat secondaries opened up and I got about24mpg.
At least you won't be crying at the pump
