This is a 65' Solid cam 273. Completely rebuild, fresh with 2000 miles. Here are some specs and what has been done:
Bored .040''
Forged crank turned 10/10
Stock forged rods reconditioned
Sealed power flattops, 9:1 compression
moly rings
Heads completely redone, bronze liners, valve job, new valves, springs, ETC
Comp Cams 270s. Specs:224 duration@.050'', .468'' lift
Aluminum Adjustable Roller Rockers
Offenhouser single plane intake
Edelbrock 500 CFM carb

No expense spared, I have 4000 invested in building this engine.

It runs great, just doesn't have enough torque for me. This engine would be fast in an A-body. Estimated power is 300 HP and 300 Ft/lbs. In fact I have a 73' Valiant, but if I can get how much I want for the engine I am going to build a 400 stroker for it. If I don't get as much as I want I am still going to use it.
The engine is still in my truck, so you can hear it run if you wish. I am open to any serious offers. Your offer depends on some parts of the engine I will include. Like the Mallory Unilite Distributor, Accel 300+ wires, MOPAR valve covers and Air cleaner.
I am located in central PA.

For $1200 you get everything carb to pan MINUS fuel pump, valve covers, and Mallory UNILITE but I have another brand new ignition coversion kit like the MOPAR one only different brand. It comes with vacuum advance distributor with performance advance curve, the ECU(equivelant to the orange box) and all the wiring harnesses.

Oh the engine is no longer in my truck, it's sitting on a stand in my garage.
