AJ's Opinion; Just for you 318 streeters

I think besides the "just build a 340 (can't really use "just" in that context) or just build a 360", the fact that within 3-5 posts of a 318 thread, we get the inevitable "buy a .600 lift cam with 300 duration, 5.36 gears and a 4000 stall converter- that's the only way to get anything from a 318" comment.

There is a certain amount of disdain for 307's in the chevy community.
I find the 283 gets more respect.
Of course, the 327 has almost the same mystique as the 340, and even though the 350 is easily the most popular an has more potential, people will shun it if possible, for a 327.
Put a 350 in your nova and tell folks it's a 327, and you get ooohs and aaahs.
Put a 350 in a factory 327 car and you get WTF "just" find a 327.
