budget 273 build

Welcome to FABO Jedidiah!

Sounds like it's going to be a fun project. The "D" Dart, while fairly mild by today's standards, was really designed to be a race car. We really need to know what your intended use is?

1) Daily driver/ decent mileage?
2) Locally run "hot rod"...meaning cruising to shows & hang outs?
3) Serious power & maybe some racing?

The 273 can easily do all of the above, it's just that component choice is spread a little wider because of the small cubes.....Meaning compression, cam, and gearing choices.

Any extra info you can give will be helpful to us, so we can help you. :thumleft:
