Probably a Dumb 318 Question

It is much, much easier to get 460hp out of a modern engine than the old 318. A 460hp 318 would be barely recognizable due to its heavy reliance on modifications and aftermarket involvement, let alone the money needed. It is a mistake to compare old cars with new. We appreciate old cars just as they are.
I agree I do not really like newer cars not against them but just prefer the shittier ride of my duster haha
