Information on the 273

QUINN FORBES said
Like any engine if you throw $ at it they can perform with gears and such, especially in a small car.

I had to quote this.It says it all.
Stone stock the disadvantage of the 273 is torque.45 cubic inches makes a big difference between it and a 318.
My 68 Valiant came stock with a 273 2bbl.They are a quality engine.
