Cams for 318's

I’d like to add that a lot of people will shun the 318 with a host of complaints and they haven’t even built one. Often I see a mismatch of components and unrealistic expectations.

One way around the big cam blues is to properly combine the right gear ratio and get a good converter with the proper stall for YOUR application. For the smaller engines, this does require a higher stall and gear ratio then a larger engine.

A second way around a lack of torque with a small engine is a roots style super charger. These are regarded as inefficient and use a lot of power to turn, but there instant brut torque can not be denied.
