If going TF's I'd really shop for a 360+ engine, there more designed for 475-525 + hp, a 318 is gonna need to turn some decent rpms to get there 6,500-7,500 rpm. Would they work on a more mild 318 ? 400-425 hp with a fairly mild cam possibly, probably better then most would think but why under...

I’ve had it out a couple times now and it’s honestly way better than the stock 2bbl and manifold. Throttle response and acceleration are better than I expected. It really lets the 318 come alive. I’m really happy with how it turned out. Hopefully this winter I can do some work to the heads...

I'll save some time for a few of the usual suspects- Choice A- stock 318 cam Choice B- .650 lift (mild) cam with 4000 stall converter and 5.13 gears (...and zero torque until 3000 RPM) That's it. Pick one.

And your argument is what again? Isn't that more or less what I just said? Except you make it out to be more than 700 rpm, to get the specific number. What the hell good is power at 6200, on the street?

Hey, I have a 318 74 Gold Duster that I have a Holley 650 classic Edelbrock intake and then I have a set of hooker headers and a 2.5in exhaust. so next I'm looking for what is a good cam that I can easily street but has a good lope and a little more power. But one that does not have a high...

I wouldn’t worry about it, there’s nothing wrong what you said. Until now this thread to me seemed to be going fine.

318 was not 230 hp, more like 170-190 hp.

So I got a comp cam set 3103 . For my 318 la last year but sold the car . I have here a 94 318 mag . And this timing set says it works for la and mags . Is that true ? How can that be true ?

i guess it all depends on the end results you are after.. for me, i would throw a 360 in the thing. if you want to keep the 318 you can do an intake and carb, work i=on the timing curve, rear gears, converter, headers, samll cam. depends where ya want to go and what you want to sacrifice.

you know what, you're right. but since you like to nerd it up, look at the graph overlays on the power. the 318 bands are much narrower. but yeah "pretty much"

2800 stall will be good for a street driver with that cam , my son has that cam in a 318 withh that stall , 904 trans . drives 60 miles to track runs 13.5 consistantly .

if you have a 318 build it, if not and you want 400+hp why look to buy a 318 to start with? i've had several 318's, the last i fitted into my valiant with a tunnel ram and solid cam so i'm not a hater. it's just easier and cheaper to get that hp with a 360 is all i'm saying.

Hey peeps! Anyone ever run one of these? On their 318? Been offered one of these COMP Cams 20-225-4 COMP Cams Xtreme Energy Camshafts | Summit Racing Hopefully should wake it up a bit as it's the heads and cam that let it down now. 1970 318 V8 stock bottom end Eddie performer intake Eddie...

Any update on how that Crane cam turned out?

You probably can get 400 hp out of a stock 273/318 head with enough cam and cr don't make it a good choice for that much horsepower.

I'm not planning on building anything now. I'm spending my time & money on getting more power from my 2000 4.7 Dakota. I just though the 318 build was pretty cool.

Sound like he was describing the comp xe268h cam wouldn't be a bad 318 cam with stall and gears.

Here's a stock low cr 2bbl 318 with headers to 4bbl and comp xe262h cam almost a 100 hp gain, 189 hp to 282 hp, who knows what the 4bbl would of made on it's own. https://www.motortrend.com/articles/mopp-0312-318-long-block-bolt-ons/

i like their products, but sometimes their customer service puts me off to the point of if i'm able to find it elsewhere i'll go that route. that being said, i like the fact that they offer a supporting cast for the star of the show and it is specifically designed to work together rather than...

Thanks! However, we need solid cam for my SuperStock 318.

350 hp no big deal, 318 heads aren't gonna do it, any 340/360/magnum heads will depending on the head cam need will vary something in the 220-225° range should do it with 600-750, air gap and headers and at least 9:1 cr. 318 or 360 should do it just the 318 gonna spin like 400-600 higher rpm to...

Every engine got what I call free power, basically the power the stock heads and cr is capable of supporting with basic hot rodding, cam 4bbl headers tune etc.. A stock 318 should be able to squeeze 275-300 hp without going too crazy with cam. Now above that heads and cr need to be addressed and...

I'm not much of a gear head, horsepower guy.. I just don't have the knowledge.. I bought a 71 318 a couple years ago. I have not heard it run, and it's been on a stand since purchase. I was "told" it ran good / strong.. No details given on the rebuild, but it does have a double roller chain and...

No...Imo, if that carb is in good shape, that's a great price. Keep in mind, the stock 318 cam is all done at 5k, so it would be a fine upgrade for what you have now.

i think the eddy performer 2177 would be a great mild cam for a 318 with stock (low-ish) compression. a little less aggressive than a stock 340 cam. the thing i don't like is that it's a single pattern cam. however, for the money i think a melling 360 stock cam or a summit white box is a better...

maybe power valve is ruptured burning more fuel. 10 initial with big carb and cam imo isn't enough. my dart is a 318 with 600 holley and 480 lift cam initial is 20 degrees and I don't plan on changing the timing because it runs really good at 20. I do run high test fuel.

If I remember right, the 365 solid lifter 2.02 head motor had 11 or 11 1/4 to one. Put a modern solid cam in, some econo w2s on it, 10 to 1 pistons, airgap intake with a 750 dp, headers in/on your 318, and hang on. 400+hp to thrash 327s (and 350s) with. Edit: the solid cam 327s redlined at 6500...

Uh, leave off one plug wire?

AJ’s advice works if you drive like AJ slow and shift by 3000 rpm’s :)

Isn't the Whiplash a poser cam? It idles like a top fueler but smoothes out at 2500 and sounds like grandma's 318.
