Define? It was defined.
It was in the 1st post by the OP but yet again, the thread devolves into the ridiculous mantra of spend more money!
He asked for cheap effective 318 engine mods only. Nothing about a converter nothing about gears, just the engine.
The first mention of 360 - 408 ,AKA larger engines has just been made. Standby soon it will be big block! The stroker big block, then Gen III HEMI swap, then “Look at what I found for you, a cheap Hellcat engine for only $6K! Best deal going!!!!”
This threads initial advice is done. I count 1 posters advice outside the engine mods requested a good one and one to follow. After that, the thread has run its course and the good advice is done. From here it’ll turn into a **** show with ridiculous advice that has nothing to do with the original question unless someone goes out of there way to actually give good advice for the original question for the 318 engine.
And the **** show has begun!
Might as well save your breath. There's a lot of "not listening" in this thread. (and not reading, or reading and not comprehending)I’ll just say, your of no help.
Re read the original question and answer it, or not.
Spending more money on another engine isn’t the answer to the OP’s question even though (from a certain prospective) it makes sense. And I’m not arguing that point ether. But then again, that’s not answering the question.
If anything, your part of the problem!
Spend money, now go spend more money! Great! You’re finished, now dump the engine and get a bigger one! Spend more money.
Wait! Did you stroke it with it set up for N02? Dang dude! You should have done that! Now spend more money!
And the **** storm continues! Spend mo money!
Don’t answer the question, just spend money.
Never mind you have what most everyone thinks is a worthless POS, spend money.
Hold on! Let me be snide and make a F’ed up comment so you feel like **** under someone sneaker, ready…
“Ill just say the 70s 318 is cheap or free for a reason.”
But don’t worry! Just spend money! It’s easy, here! I’ll do it for you!!!!
Add in text of idiotically spending money on what he never wanted in the first place.
