Magnum 318 carb conversion

Thanks for clarifying what I was trying to say about the snout. LX. Also On the tranny I was trying to say that unless you were running all the orig equipment if you broke the package apart and say put a 904 behind it you should research the flex plate/balancer/converter situation carefully. The switch to flat tappet is an excellent option but I have heard that it is expensive. I have also heard that the AMC and mopar lifters now carry the same part number and it is important to get the correct AMC lifters for the swap. Some of the guys who did the swap wound up having to measure and order custom length push rods. I'll stick with the roller set up for both free horsepower from a lower friction coeffecient, the ability to reuse lifters indefinitely, the chance of wiping a cam very low, and not having to use high spring pressures, and overall durability.
