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...

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...

And those Fireball cams were $49.95. I sold a bunch of them.

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.

Even on a stock 273 2 barrel engine. You have to remember a 318 has a very small hydraulic cam with no lift and no duration. 50 hp requires more compression, cam change, as well as the little things that all add up. Still a worthwhile upgrade. The only car I liked with a 2 barrel carb was my...

No. I’d recommend that cam with a minimum of a 2,500 stall converter, & a min of 3.55 gears with the typical 727/904 trans.

"I think the wise move would be to go with a roller cam and factory roller lifters, spider, dog bones and pushrods, assuming the pushrod holes in the cylinder heads are big enough." _______________ I would think unless he is using the 302 closed chamber heads with the large pushrod holes to...

Or say the other way around, if you took a 650 hp 408 and replaced its say 260 @ 0.050" cam with a stock 318 cam you wouldn't expect to lose over a hundred hp probably a couple plus hundred hp ?

Question for the head porting experts: Would a well ported set of heads (like Edelbrock or SM) and a well matched intake get you there? 5 hundo HP with a 318 and say, a solid roller cam with sub 230 degrees or duration?

I am currently running a stock 5.2 magnum in a D150. Headers, Carb, Port matched. Just finished building a 318 with XE262 Cam. Stock 89 short block, port matched. Do you guys think the 318 with the XE262 cam will make more noticeable power compared to the stock 5.2?

Old style grinds. Lots of advertised duration and not a lot of lift. Easy on valve train and springs.

And the OP has a 318. He needs to be mindful that a stock teen can't use much of a cam without modifications.

I went from a 318 TBI to a 5.9 SMPI and for me the bottom end torque difference was night and day better. Even pulls a steeper hill in OD without kicking down now. Completely different rig.

*wearily* you... you missed the "best cam for a 318" discussions and if you can make horsepower with a 318 fear not, there will be another, likely by the end of the week. the battles continue as the war is not yet won...

How about searching out an '89 - '91 roller 318, or the earlier '86 - '88 roller 318? The generation of 318 Roller Cam engines all came with the flat top pistons .040 ths down in the hole at 9.2:1 c.r. stock without even having to touch them. With the factory 302 Closed Chamber heads with the...

Sadly i'm still putting the car together... so i have only driving it bout 50ft at a time to move it :) Hoping to drive it before winter.. it sounds amazing though... not that that matters....

That ‘87 318 is a good motor, especially if it’s a roller. Put a good intake, carb, headers, mild cam and dual timing chain with a metal gear on it and it will move that Dart around just fine. If you decide on the 360 just remember it’s externally balanced and the 318 is internally balanced

they shouldn't (famous last words). per their specs they're set up for hydro cams up to that lift, so i'd assume you're in the clear. and they're single spring. color me jealous, that's one of my favorite cams for 318's ETA: the 60779 has single springs and is for flat tappet. 60775 is for...

...original apart, and subbing in an 039FellPro, about a minute with a calculator will point to about 9.6 in the real world today. BTW I put a 318 cam into one of those back in the early 70s, and it was ferocious on the street in my 65 Valiant wagon. Oh, I forgot to mention that I installed 318...

Where are examples of these "Cheap hot rods?" and timeslips? Tony's fans say this is what Hotrodders did I recall they swapped in Cadillac and Lincoln v8s into smaller coupes and roadsters so whos rewriting the books here? the 318 guys will go back to cam, heads, 4 barrel and headers with the...

And it was still junk. Crushed many a Camaros with a 318 Duster. All I heard was slurping snot and tears of how they lost to a super expensive 340 Duster.

Unfortunately just opening up the exhaust system on a slanty is not going to wake them up from the dead. Unless you go high compression and cam like Rusty did. Had the '78 225 factory 2 bbl setup and the '76 225 1bbl with the best factory cam. No comparison when going to stock 318 with a 4...

I have a knock in my 318. Its definitely a lower end knock. My guess is a connecting rod. This is what I have; Bored .020 over stock pistons, rods, crank Compression ranged from 138 - 143 when I last checked it Comp cam XE262 262/270 duration, 462/470 lift 302 casting heads milled to 58 cc...
