Quicky 318 rebuild: 300 HP dependably?

New to mopar. ive got a 68 barracuda with a 318, mild cam, eddy performer I think with an eddy carb (600). It runs great, real ballsy for a small block, but i know nothing about it as far as mileagr, previous beatings/abuse or competency of the previous assembler. TIME FOR A REBUILD. Nothing exotic, nothing expensive.

I am thinking a stock, rebuilt bottom end with an .030 overbore, hypereutectic pistons, balanced assembly, a set of 340 J heads, the edelbrock performer and carb, and a set of basic cheapo headers. Having trouble with cam selection, but will soon be 4 speed and i think the rear gears are 3;70 ish.


Thoughts/ idseas/ experiences? please school me on the 318. Thank you.
