What's the deal with the Poly 318

I toasted many a gm 350 with my 66 2 barrel poly.

As stated they are torque-ier than an equivalent LA.

As so many have said- a LOT of performance potential is in the head, and that's where most of the difference is.

...and as I've often said- "the absolute worst thing about a poly is that gm guys won't shut up about how your big block is the only reason you beat their 350".
