318 build

I think your better off doing a 360.
But then again, he's not asking that. Lets answer the question instead of starting an argument and such.....

Easier to get parts at less $$$$.

That is 100% incorrect.

The only place a 318 cost's more than a 360 is HP slugs. Stock stroke or 4 inch arm. It will use every other S/B part and do so with out thought. A sonic check may even allow a 4 inch over bore.


Many years back......
"73 318 block .030 over, deck milled a bit to true it up. OE replacement slugs. Choose carefully since some years have higher deck heights. Milled 360 heads, 1.88/1.60 stock port. MP thin gaskets. Crane Commander 278, forget the lift, IIRC, (LOL Probably not) it was under .500 lift on a 112 C-line.
600 Holley DP, Torker II 340, headers into 2-1/2 exhaust backed by a 4spd and 4.10's.
Ram mid 13's all day long in a E-body Cuda.

What fun I'd have today with more modern parts. RPM, better heads and slug selection. Woooooo :blob:
