hey guys, so I’m going to start building my first engine and I got my hands on a 318 and 360 for free. The 360 was a 1979 but had a crack so I gave the bottom end away and kept the heads and rest of the top end. The 318 is a 1971 block and it’s all good just needs machining. So I’ve read up and found that kb167 pistons will up my compression and I figured I might as well get some forged rods for it. But for the rest of the engine I ve seen many different opinions and builds. I wanted to see what you guys have experienced and what you would suggest in building a nice street performance 318. I’m putting it in my 71 Duster I bought three years ago as my first car and the /6 of course isn’t what I prefer. Anyway I don’t wanna go on forever talking so I’ll post some pictures with this and leave it at that. By the way I am also on a low budget with this build.
Thanks, Carson
