Breathing new life into the 318 in the Scamp!

Hahaha... Plus, 360 cranks are induction hardened cast pieces. I've seen people cut through the hardened area and try to pass it off as finished/ polished when you can see a color change in the metal.

Oddly enough, as my optimism sets in here, I'm not going to throw them away if the guy will not take them back.

I ended up getting a set of 318 heads back from a machinist that were believed to be 360 heads and treated like they were with 1.6 valves in the exhaust. They have hardened seats and new guides with no port work done. I'm starting to accidentally accumulate the right parts for a boosted 318, which I may just end up doing to another car that I have ('72 Dart).

That may be a pipe dream, but I could give it quite a bit of PSI on a 7.75 squeeze.

I'm going to spec some 318 Keith Blacks and buy exactly what I want. I'm tired of this.
