Many years ago, Popular Hot Rodding magazine built up a 73-74 340. The suggested using a 318-3 or 318-8 crankshaft because they claimed they were a truck shaft & were stronger. I don't believe all of the BS the magazines publish because they can print whatever they wish & it's up to the general public to prove or disprove it. By the time their lawyers get through, whomever disputed them is broke.
