Bill,
Don't bet too heavily on that... LOL!

As you're probably aware, the head with the casting number ending in "302" (actually,4323302) is now legal on a 273. I think that was a 318 head introduced around 1986, with the same size valves, but supposedly better-flowing ports and a high-swirl combustion chamber... allegedly worth something.

Still, 12-flat is moving for a 273/automatic car in (K/SA) at 2,900 pounds. I THINK Larry Hollums does that motor, so, that explains a lot.. LOL! Anybody remember the SS/IA car of Winter/Esslinger (another Hollums effort)???
'nuf sed.

Bill
