Stock 318 bolt on performance modifications

I just DID this very thing. The 360 I bought (used) developed a knock, and I didn't want the car down for the rest of this very short summer.

Found a comPLETEly stock 318 about 73 on Craigs for 200 with evidently less than 40 K claimed by the seller. Plastic cam sprocket looked like new, cam and lifters looked like new, and BARELY any wear from the seal on the balancer. Blue painted VC and intake gaskets had NEVER been off!!!! Frankly I'd say it has less than 20K on it!!

Ran it a week stock, ran good, so I put my "little" cam and Edelbrock Performer, 650CFM AFB The cam is an unknown reground, was supposed to be about the same as the factory HP 340 cam except in a mechanical grind

That little 318 is AMAZINGLY snotty. No head work, nothing else was touched. Car has headers and mediocre dual exhaust.

REGULAR FUEL!

If I get time, maybe I'll do an "in car" vid.
