It should be fun. I always how loose the car feels. You need to beat on it and then it stands up and delivers!well.. i think i spec'd 3400(i think, might be 3200... receipt not near me and i'm old damnit).. but i won't make much tq and the 4.57s will make it stall much lower i'm expecting.. but should be fun
The Hand of Vecna, the Eye of Vecna, Sword of Kas, Baba Yaga's Hut and plenty more magical artifacts just came to mind.Magical artifacts don't come cheap....
Chevy even made an HO 305 with better heads, cam and more compression with a 4 barrel.Yep, basic hot rodding. Ford and Chevy did it. Mopar kept the Teen as a basic workhorse. Well, until nothing much else was left and they put them in a cop car with a 4 barrel and some 360 heads.![]()
And it was still junk.Chevy even made an HO 305 with better heads, cam and more compression with a 4 barrel.
Well yeah, but they still made it.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.
I miss the "Disagree" X. I would use it here. The 318 is only 22 cubic inches smaller than the 340. Built properly a 318 can be an awesome engine. It just needs quality heads, crank, pistons etc. I would think a 6 pack on a well built 318 would be awesome.People go with 318s cause they cheap or free...they never were powerhouses unless you are easily impressed. Will they sound good in a Scamp? yes will the Scamp do a "burnout" yes will the Scamp do a 13 sec quarter mile with a stock 318 ? no would it with a stock 340? probably...that's why I look down on a 318 I cant speak for others...
i am not so far yet. First i have to rebuild my 318 and then i put the six pack on it and cut a hole in my hood![]()
Who cares?I miss the "Disagree" X. I would use it here. The 318 is only 22 cubic inches smaller than the 340. Built properly a 318 can be an awesome engine. It just needs quality heads, crank, pistons etc. I would think a 6 pack on a well built 318 would be awesome.
@DartSwinger, I am just curious what the "Who cares" is about? I really don't care; I'm just curious. Was it the fact that I said I missed the red X, the fact that I said the 318 was only 22 CIs less than the 340, the fact that I said I thought a well built 6 Pack 318 would be awesome? Just curious.Who cares?
