how can i get 400hp out of a 318?

Haven't you learned people on these boards don't read, they just know more then the guys that "actually" build engines & test them, I read those acticles & 400hp was easily doable with a "stock stroke" 318, they even said how they proved the sceptics wrong, oh yeah there again, the ones that hardly ever build engines & spend 24/7 on these boards & know everything....

Some people, such as myself, are here "24/7" because of a disability and it keeps them sane. I'm sure you didn't mean that as insulting as you made it sound. I was a mechanic for almost thirty years and got hurt and now can no longer work. Although I've not built many engines lately, I assure you the ones I have built number over 100. And disassembly even more since I started as a kid in a local machine shop at the bottom rung.
