Mission Impossible 318

I'm definitely interested in what a properly built and blueprinted engine will do in terms of power. I'd also like to see it done in stages. Start with the basic engine, 2bl, manifold, stock cam etc. Then step it up incrementally and measure the effects. Richard Holdener does a lot of this kind of thing.

As far as what they're doing here, IDK the real value in it. I agree with @Rat Bastid they're going to polish a turd. Nobody serious would ever build a performance sbm with stock 318 heads, manifolds, and a 2bbl carb. That's junk a teenager would do because he's got no money.

Now, are they going to work some voodoo on the build in order to reap more power out of it? I might be interested in seeing what they could do, for example, cherry picking the best parts from all the magnum/LA variants and making something unique and showing what does what.
