Big horsepower 318 builds

Yes cause you keep on posting **** like this, then rather what the OP wants.
I never called you directly a troll so you must instinctively know what you are.

Not saying a 416 vs a 360 can't squeeze more power out, "I just have no theory how it would" ?, to me torque is a factor of CR, chamber shape, VE%, displacement etc... Torque is a snap shot of one power stoke which defiantly tied to displacement and efficient. HP is all the power strokes added up. I'm guessing it would have something to do with port velocity and size that these 302 ish cids can't use up the cfm's. Cause I find cam size don't very a lot when it comes to serious street/strip 230 to 250 engines, 400hp, 500hp, 600hp only mainly difference with heads ability. How would you build a 500 hp 318-328 vs a 500 hp 408-416 ? Obviously you stated the 302-318 side but what would be the difference for the 408/416?

The only thing why I can think of why some small displacement can't scale up in hp as larger displacement engines sometimes, is it's become harder as rpm rises.

^^^ see even this is a bunch of troll garbage! you're not going to build a 318 that makes 500 horsepower everybody knows it. Nobody is! This whole entire subject is just food for entertainment that's it.. you quote prh with some eloquently put figures but he's already said no one's going to do it... He's already said why would someone do it when you can make more for less. I myself even started out years and years ago to make the fastest 318 known to man but quickly figured out it was more expensive than making more horsepower with a 360.. because nobody does it... Nobody who doesn't have a magazine backing them. So just like I said every last person who posts on this thread is a complete troll because no one is going to actually follow through and build this motor.... is it going to be on pump gas or is it not is it going to be Streetabal or is it not, why someone would be talking about gears or transmissions does not make any sense at all. What in the hell does that have to do with 500 horsepower 318. I could give my formula for it but it would just be another fart in the wind like everybody else is formula that's not going to happen....
