Low Dollar 318 Grand Finale Exit !!

I’m excited to see the results! I’ve got an identical setup to your original 318 build, but in a 66 Dart GT convertible. Gonna run some compression tests, pull the heads and see if the block/pistons/rings are in good enough shape to do a similar build to yours. I’m a little doubtful though, it a 1971 318 of unknown history, and I think it’s pretty tired. Might end up snagging a 360 instead and working with that. We shall see! But if I can use the 318, the performance you got out of yours will be plenty for my drop-top cruiser. Thanks for posting all of this, it entertaining as hell, and super informative for guys like me with limited experience building, and a lower budget.
