273 or NOT 273?

Cam duration, Compression ratio, what's been done to the cylinder heads, carburetor modifications, transmission modifications, gear ratio, stall converter, type of headers, ignition system.
I'd start in the rear and work your way forward. I'd guess 4.88's, 8" converter, ...... keep swimming up stream! But still, it ran the number in a different way! I like his builds by the way.
