PK numbers

good info, thanks. Ive had slant trucks before but they were all stick equipped/ IF the 727 were to go away then this one would be switched to a stick as well.
Ive done the swap a slant to a 318 thing before..... I thought in this case by not getting a V8 radiator, engine mounts, trans, etc I could put more into the engine itself.
Im not going crazy on a cam, but I am going up some from stock.
Im porting a head for it, I have a set of NOS valves I could put in sitting here, but I am going to go with the OS valves.
just an overbore of 20-thou-that's all the machinist said it would take to clean up.
going to a Super 6, I have an NOS BBD here for it already (not a Chinesium clone) all else being equal swapping to a super 6 "only" with no other mods, that in and of itself made a big difference in my son's '80 stepside with a slant. still not a barn burner but definitely noticeable improvement. Im hoping that mine will improve more than his did with teh additional work I have in mind for mine. Im not building a drag racer. That was never the plan. but I want to see what I can get out of a /6.
I have a 440 sitting here (low comp and low miles from a Winnebago) that I could stuff in there instead. I have 2 each 318 Magnums (in pieces) and 360 Magnums (also need rebuilt) that I have enough parts for to build one each, 318 and 360. But no good Magnum heads on hand. so I'll see what the slant will do this time.
If I dont like it then I can put that engine into my Volare (that I was gonna put one of teh 318 Magnums into) as it too was originally a slant that surprised me and actually ran pretty damn good for a slant car with 2.76 gears (once I replaced the plugged cats with straight pipe) so this engine wont go to waste. I sold that original slant from the Volare, this engine that I am working on now, is forged crank version.
