340ci vs 360ci engine

Torque is the number one smile maker on the street. A 360 is going to have more torque than your 318 because of the longer stroke of the 360 crank. I went from a 273 (318 isn't really that much bigger) to a 360 and I am completely satisfied with it's performance. I would not waste another penny on the 318.... you will be sorry if you do. I wasted some money on the 273 and still didn't get the performance I wanted until the 360. Just trying to save you some money and time.
