318 parts list
Here's what I did to my 318...
Its a completely stock bottom end from a mid to late 70's car. (cast crank, rods, pistons.) Its got keith black silvolite cast pistons that are .060 overbore, with 4 valve reliefs and they are .070 down in the hole...(remember late 70's low compression)
I did a rering job, honed the cylinders, emory clothed the crank journals and installed new main, rod, and cam bearings. Assembled the short block with a comp cams double roller timing chain, a timing chain tensioner from a magnum engine, and the MP windage tray kit, with a HV oil pump.
The cam & lifters I used is an Edelbrock Performer RPM kit. 234/244 @ .050 and 488/510 lift and a 112* LSA.
For the heads, they are the RHS/Indy X heads prepped by Brian @ IMM with 202/160 valves, 5/16 stems, and beehive springs for a lightweight valvetrain combo. They have a 62cc closed chamber.
I used Hughes Engines 1.5 roller rockers, and custom length comp cams chromoly pushrods.
The intake is an Edelbrock Performer RPM with a holley 650 spreadbore carb. It is, IMO, a very responsive carburetor.
To finish it off, I used TTI headers.
This engine is in my '68 Barracuda fastback, with an 8 3/4 and 3:55 suregrip. Rebuilt 904, red clutches, kolene steels, 4.2 lever, HD band strut, HD accumulator spring, with a TransGo II shift kit. 3000 stall PTC converter.
I haven't been to the track. I don't know what it runs, and I don't know what I have for horsepower...Rumble, maybe you can guess for me? 310 HP maybe??
It runs really good on the street. It feels fast, it'll chirp into 2nd gear all the time, and if I'm really on it, it'll spin the tires while shifting to second and I gotta let off...
Anyways...Sorry for the long winded post...maybe it'll help?? ....or not..
