273 Commando

I find it funny when someone wants to go hydraulic with a mild 273 most talk you out of it.

But I rarely see someone suggest going solid when people are looking for a performance cam for 318/340/360 especially since there's no shortage of 273 rockers.

Ya, not sure why that is.......my personal recommendation for 318/340/360 would be hydraulic if the build would call for a cam that is mild enough to utilize the stock pushrods and rockers. Beyond that I prefer, and would recommend solids. My personal stable: 273 - solid, 340 - solid, 360- solid, curent 430 build in progress - solid roller, 216 Chev - solid. (And I don't spend much time adjusting valvetrains :) )
