Heres an older thread... probably should be in the tech archives by now
Haha... 5 years old and 18 pages...??? Looks perfect. Definitely going to have to quit my job and sit down and read that very soon...
I was thinking about a 273 Magnum as well... but to put the new heads on the old block you dont get the roller cam. New heads on new block you get 318cid. I'm thinking the efficiency ov the roller likely makes up for the added cubes in MPG.
Heh... then i get real stupid and start thinking about Ford mod motors... I could have 281 cid, 350HP (before modifications), closer to 30MPG, a VERY cheap already bolted-on 5speed, and it would sound goddamn GLORIOUS...
Getting complicated here quickly... stock drop-in Magnums are probably my best bet right now.
