Big horsepower 318 builds
I don’t see anyone saying it can’t be done.
I think what it boils down to is..... when it comes to actually laying down your $$$ and building it......it would appear(by the shear lack of abundant 500hp 318 builds) that most people opt to get those extra hp that you get from the added cubes....... and not spending any more for it.
It’s just economics.
Same reason 440’s are more popular than 413’s, and 400’s are more sought after than 361’s.
I’d love to see someone step up and do a legit, dyno tested/verified 500hp build with a stock stroke 318.
Show everyone exactly what it takes.
The fairly high effort enginemasters build came up 23hp shy.
