Well I ususally get majorly blasted for posting similar comments. What I keep hearing is "340-360 cores are too expensive" I want to know how much $$$ one would dump into a 318 for 300 HP at the wheels...any takers? What you end up finding is, basically the only thing 318 is the block itself and maybe the crank. that is what no one wants to acknowledge it seems. The rest of it is 340-360 heads or aftermarket designed after 340-360 heads, a stroker crank, aftermarket high comp pistons, a cam with matching valve springs...and mostly always port work...am I good on the recipe? Really I ask because I dont know. i have built. ran 318s but never did anything more than cam, 4 barrel and headers.
