Probably a Dumb 318 Question

i had the same thought.

in the same vein, i'd bet a smaller solid roller would make that a little better mannered and if you set phasers to stun and not kill it'd probably drive okay on the street... maybe giving up 15~20hp
That 318 was a members engine, he did run it with a bit smaller cam, I think it was B3422w5 and he said it worked great.
