"Of Course I Forgot,"Man Ive Been Around Mopars So Long, How Could I Forget that one! Turn Down a Spuned 360 Crank! & Reuse it in a 318 Stroker Rebalanced of course, ](*,) "But I Might as will used a 360 Anyway if i was to go that Route! Yes for a Poly maybe But were Talking LA 318 Here & to Me 360s Down this way arnt that common So I wouldnt waste A Good 360 just to use its Crank in a 318 as Ive got one 360 Left & nine 318s at My Disposal."To Me a 318 has to have Potential as All they are to me is 340s with a Smaller Bore & Heads if you were to bore them .030" to .060" & Put a set off 360 Heads on & Up the Comp ratio & a Cam They will Sing!Just my Thoughts,"But Hey you Guys Have been Great" & I love that Engine in your pic Mr Speeddemon! :thumblef: "Same Question was Asked of Herb McCandless Junior as to Why He Run A 318,"His Reply "Why Not" The Cores Are Plentiful & No ones Really Chased one of these Motors Hard Enough!
