This has been so much fun, how can you resist not doing another??? lol. Wait, if you're not going to do it with a 318, then there won't be a problem. It will be accepted as the gospel truth with no doubts.... but IF you use a 318....... then WWIII bombs will fall.... all..... over.... Wisconsin... BOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

Right, Spareparts. Those stock eliminators run tons of duration, lots of stall and gears. Still, stock carb, intake, compression, and cam lift..... that's some haulin...
 
The super stocker get to run roller and, all the cam lift they can get the valve train to withstand , the Aspen is in the .800+ range

super stockers get to run any aluminum intake ....just has to match original configuration...as if it came with a 4 barrel...aluminum intake has to be 4 barrel...

can run any light weight pistons...any light weight steel rod ...ported cylinder heads....

Price a competitive SS engine?....bring your visa ....
Pro trans 904 will cost you 6k....plus 1k for converter....

I thought the wagon was stock eliminator.. my bad! Still....
 
WOW! I wish I would have read this thread earlier! I thought I was happy with my 11.91! Thank You SpareParts, you have motivated me to shoot for more and that these times are possible with a 318! Planning on a little more tire and a new cam for next season.

Lol @ this thread :-D

This thread gives hope to those that are constantly told that you cannot make a 318 do this or you cannot make a 318 do that... Just go buy a 360. I had the opportunity to buy a decent 360 real cheap, but I passed it up because I wanted to be the oddball and stick with my 318. I have a stock 318 running over everything around my city that's in my class or close to it. People are out swapping motors and building pure race cars right now to beat a stock 318 on the street. I even had a guy sell his Ranger with a 351C a few months ago because he got embarrassed. I know when more work is done to my engine, it'll perform just as good as a 302 or 350 based engine.

Props to you, SpareParts.

Thanks, I'm glad you found the point of this. I have ALWAYS done more with less, I can't afford over the top nice parts so I do homework and a ton of testing.

Nothing in this sport is easy, no victory is given, this isn't for the weak. Best of luck with your build.
Y'all might see me next year with another pot stirring thread. . . . I'm sure it'll get me banned lol

I'm in the same boat. I cannot step out and buy those super nice parts like others. I use to think that you have to go bankrupt for a decent setup, but you don't. I sit here and browse many threads to gain knowledge of going faster on a budget. So far, I've been extremely happy with the results.

I'll be looking forward to your threads. If you get banned, I'll get in touch with CNN. Lol!

The guys around here don't think its a 318 or stock because it sounds healthy and she screams.

'87 318 out of a Diplomat, Edelbrock 750, Weiand Action+Plus Manifold, Mallory Unilite, Summit Street/Strip Coil, Ram Manifolds w/ 2.25" Pipe & 4" Glasspacks, A904 w/ Manual Valve Body & Factory High Stall, 3.55 Gears

There is nothing special about my setup, but it works for me. I'm looking to install a camshaft in a couple of months to stay ahead of those guys that's doing work to beat me. One guy is bragging about spending around $3,000 so far and he's not finished yet. I feel so special :D
