i will disagree my 340 with the 218@50 454 lift 110 106 is a great street cam some lope would be a even bigger in the 318

I say build the 318. Terry Brighton racing built a 318 stroker with Trick Flow heads, air gap, Lunati 243/251 VooDoo hydraulic roller cam. Made 535/535. Pretty much equal to 360 strokers give or take a few.

After a couple of years with the Holley Sniper EFI and it’s problems I now decided to go back to carb. I need some suggestions, so I buy one I can work with. I tried Edelbrock 1405 and 1406 before the Sniper, was never happy with. 318 with 904. Edelbrock RPM Airgap intake Edelbrock RPM...

The LA318 was introduced in 1967. There were some poly engines that had hydraulic lifters. I used to have a couple. I'm trying to remember what they came out of.... industrial or marine application probably.

Cam, compression, and intake. 318's, like the 2V 302 and 305 suffered from an emissions cam, low intake valve lift. They also had low compression. Install quench heads with zero deck pistons to get compression and efficient combustion, a cam in the 220°@ 0.050" lift and 0.500 valve lift, and a...

I looked up in the mopars master engine catalog and they call for mopars .508/292* cam for a 13 second 13, I think that a flat 13 can be obtained with less cam as that information is probably 25 years ago.

Summer almost done, I do the 440 swap over the winter and have a badass car for spring, there's no way I'd pick a 318 over a 440 if that was the choice, I've have nothing against 318's but to me that's a pretty easy choice, even would choose the 440 over a 360. For a street car, most self...

You look at the parts list for a 400 hp 318,340,360 it practically the same, around 10:1 cr, 230 to 245 cam, airgap 750 headers and magnum or x heads or mild ported 2.02 360 heads or 318 heads ported to flow similar, or SM, Edelbrocks with maybe slightly less cam. Don't get this cost issue.

What are the rest of those cam specs, please?

Normally I’d razz ya a bit here calling you a 318 hater, but yea, with an inexpensive 5.9, instead, miles ahead. First intelligent thing you said in months.

Why do these always turn into: A- don't do anything to a 318, because it's useless, unless.... B- change the heads, install a 4000 RPM converter, change the bore, install a .700 lift cam, and 5.13 gears.

Wish me luck as I'm going to be checking out a couple of duster's next week. I'm only asking these questions as a quide, both are 318 cars but one is a 2 barrel. Once the car is home I'm going to check it out completely and if everything checks out okay I'd like to do a 4 barrel swap and was...

I built a sacrificial lamb for testing of the roots engine for my 70 Challenger. Built it out of what I had laying around out of old 318. Dipped the block, new cam bearings / soft plugs. Had the crank turned, honed the cylinders. New rings, opened up the ring gap. Grabbed a set of 2.02 J heads...

So quick question. There's a few "brand x" 5.3 builds up on YouTube by our beloved Richard holdener. In his usual style he gets a junkyard engine and tops it with heads cam and intake to get to a desired power level. In one of them he's getting 500+ with a pretty mild BTR hydraulic roller...

Please help me car is gold don't know cam trans work and any thing else bought as 318 is worked over 360 or I have to take a part car has ss springs and race shifter or your thoughts

Speaking from experience here..... I put a 6 pack set up on the 318 in the 69 Fury ragtop that I had for 17 years. All stock original long block, except I put a 68 340 cam in it. Stock convertor and 3.55 gears. That land yacht would still pull 18mpg if I kept my foot out of it.. not a rocket...

Provide more details. Original cam or replacement? Long snout cam or short snout? Original washer setup or replacement? Maybe even post a picture of the cam gear before the washer and bolt are installed.

So to get the stock 48* on a 250 cam would be 180 + 48 = 228, 228 - (250/2) = 103 + 4* (advance) = a 250 cam on a 107 lsa and 41* overlap, DV formula recommends a 107.6 lsa, you could make a pretty decent cam for a 318 with a 250 on an 107 lsa no reason to say no cam upgrades, and I'm sure you...

Don't know about cheaper, since the 380hp crate is the same as a 5.9l from a junk yard just with an aftermarket cam and intake. Saying that I'm not knocking the 318/390 it's a cool little build most be happy with especially with a set of headers, just thought if you were thinking about a...

I had the same experience with a 318. I believe its the heads holding it back 318s though the lift of the stock cam is just under .400 so it is a bit of an upgrade.

2000 stall is stock would work with a mild cam, but a mild cam might be too much with your possible cr to run on pump gas, meaning you might need to run a fair size cam which will want more stall and gears. Even a fairly mild cam would benefit more stall and gears in a 318.

I agree toolman, I think it may be a 318 out of a truck or van, by the shape of the oil pan. I would also assume the heads are from a later SB and not a 340. No X,J,O or U castings on the heads.

The 268/.485 spec cams have been used for all applications for years. I put one in my 454 Chevy powered tool truck years ago. In an engine that big you couldn't even tell it was bigger than stock specs. If you put that cam in a 360 it's a RV cam. You put it in a 318 and it's a hot street cam...

I'm freshening up a 1974 low comp 318 with a quick hone, new plasma moly rings and new bearings. I done some home bowl porting & port matched the 675 heads with larger 1.88 / 1.60 valves. SCR will be around 8.5:1 with Mr Gasket 1121G (0.028") head gaskets. Using a port matched Performer intake...

No 318 ever came with a 340 cam and very few 360 did, most 4bbl 360 had 2bbl cams.

Its been said Im sure before if its stock bottom say early 70s smog 318 it will run put of steam quick at like 5000r pm. It will sound good...

Depends on the original application of the cupped washer- I know of at least 3 different depths that were used. Deepest was on the LA 318/360 roller cam engines. They were the deepest because they used a long snout cam and no fuel pump eccentric. Middle depth is a "normal" LA motor with long...

Without good heads, a stroker won't get you much. Good heads, decent cam, improved compression can get you 325-350 out of a stock stroke 318. And in case you were wondering, John's 318s, stocker type, make somewhere around 400-500 depending on stock eliminator or super stock.

What year, body,of magnum manifolds are you suggesting?

At toolman - The rant is in fun… but honest And what was my reply to that and the subsequent reply to when someone mentioned about the crack in the head? So now we’re on Rinse & Repeat? I like that idea. I did the same-ish, when my daughter wrecked her ‘00 Durango. Nabbed that 5.9 right fast.
