Low speed torque and driveability ?
If you look at all the 318 builds there all making 332-356 lbs-ft at 3000 rpm more than the stock dyno numbers on these graph for the 318 and a small margin for the 340 and 360. With comps xe262, xe268, xe275, 280 and fairly big solid roller in the 477 hp 318 making 337 lbs-ft at 2500 rpm which is still higher than stock 340, and would assume this should be the lazest one at low rpms ?
Unless all these engines take a super massive nose dive under 2500 rpms which I highly doubt for most of them.
