273 Mopar heads, stock or Eddy?
Hi folks, I'm collecting parts for a 273/235hp J/K/L Stock class Valiant and would like to know if I should stock up on factory heads or are the Edelbrock's the way to go? I have access to the factory heads but I hate to spend the money if they won't be used. Thanks!

The 4323302 was said to be a good choice at one time.

If you can find the edelbrock heads they would be fine. I have been looking and not seen a set in over 2 years. The bill to make them work might knock you off your chair. I have a set it and nothing even comes close to working.
The iron heads made great power. No need to spend prohibitive money trying to make the aluminum heads work. |

Suggest you contact Bill Bushmaker, Angela’s Valiant was always FAST with that combination

I have several dozen different number 273 Heads.
They are not expensive or hard to find!
