who has the fastest 318 ?!!!
I have done the Furd 302 thing and with off the shelf aluminum heads and a ported factory Cobra (FI) intake, AOD, 4.10 and ran a best of 11.75 @ 113 MPH. The 360 in my Dart is not exactly fresh, but it would be interesting to see if I could replicate those results with a 318. I would look for a later model Magnum version of the 318 from a truck for as a starting point. My EQ heads would need some mild porting and a close shave to get the chambers down around 54 cc. I would step up to a 1 3/4 inch header and run my existing roller cam as a starting point. I am not sure it would be as easy to get a Dart down to 2900 lbs as it is a Rustang (even with the heavy hatch model).
