318 Build suggestions

Think about it;
there is nothing a performance 318 can do, build for build, that a 360 can't do better. Build for build, and gear for gear, a 318 can edge out a 360 in hiway economy; mostly because of internal friction , in dragging slightly bigger diameter rings, slightly further up and down the bores. And maybe you can find one or two other legitimate reasons but those will be small contributors.
But then, build for build and gear for gear, that same 360 will kill the 318 in performance.


Couldn't you say that for a 440 vs a 360 so with that logic all small blocks are waste of time since even a 383 is bigger than a 360.
I agree with you 360 definitely have the advantage over 318 but I also agree that this instance that people shouldn't build a 318 when they obviously want too and peeps keep in chiming in build a 360 instead of helping them with their goal is too much.
