318 Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

Yup thanks that works for sure, I'll download those to my laptop.

Getting that quench right will really help it run cool and be able to work on lower-octane gas. I was gonna make a comment about the cam then realized you hadn't posted specs yet lol #-o So what's the target compression, seems like it might end up around 10:1 or a hair less?

FWIW my 360 is mild like your build, in fact calculating my HP from timeslips at the drag strip and compensating for altitude had me right around 330 HP. Like I mentioned I have stock Magnums, also KB flat tops and .039" head gaskets which I computed out to 10.42:1. I'm running the small 256/262* adv. duration Lunati Voodoo cam and it's a torque MONSTER this thing is begging for a bigger cam which I will hopefully give it by summer. Runs great on premium pump btw and I can get 17+ MPG on the highway with a non-lockup 904 trans and 2.94 gears.

Good luck on your build it should turn out to be a really nice versatile street engine :glasses7:

It would wind up around 10:1 but a dish is being machined into the piston to net us a target of 8.9 :1. With the small cam planned and 87 octane ($3.55 US gal) here, economy is still high on the priority list. J.Rob
