318 Cam Maybe Not

Keep in mind, with the 7 1/4 peg leg and 2:76's it will be slightly disappointing from a standing start. Once it gets up into the power band of the cam a little, it will seem like a whole different car.

Once you do it, you'll want an 8 3/4 with a suregrip and a minimum 3;23.

I have a 318 in my Dart Sport. I installed a HE268 kit, double roller chain, 4v intake and carb with headers. I put 3:55's out back, and for a 318 it's a fun little car.

That's a good combination to go along with that 268 cam. A stock 318 couldn't handle it though, especially with the 2:76's. That XE250 H has 20° less duration and .040 less lift than the 268. It gets the duration well below the 220° guideline for a stock teen with a stock converter.
