150 HP LA 318 - vs - 230 HP Magnum 318

Do those numbers sound right?

I looked on Wikepedia, it says the LA 318 is 150 horse power. The Magnum 318 is stated to have 230 horse power.

Since I am in the market for an engine swap, I am considering the Magnum 318, since I have not yet located a 360. (And I have found a couple 318's)

Seems like a decent upgrade, although not as much horsepower as the 360 swap, I would think it would be a noticeable improvement over my tired LA 318.

BTW, the Magnum 360 is rated at 250 horsepower.

What thinks you?
