Rebuild 318 or go Crate

You guys sure disrespect the 318. NOTHING wrong with it. 300 hp ? no problem. Just saying. And you will say "might as well build a 360, it will cost the same" NOT true.

Take a dart with a 340 or a stroker or a 360 for that matter and compare it to a 318 car. Which will pull more money on re-sale?

Also, please inform me how it costs more to build a 360 vs. a 318?


I'm not into the big wheels and tires on the earlier cars - but some are and they aren't cheap. I installed 12 & 13" brakes on an Ebody, with the hydroboost, and 18s with Nitto rubber... The parts bill alone was 5 figures. But, it did stop on a dime and has pulled beyond 1g on the skidpad. Whatever floats your boat.


17's are a nice compromise on the older stuff.
