Today, dollar for dollar, is the 318 faster than the 340 ???

My take on this is its just a HOBBY and not my bread and butter job.
If I were the one building 400 HP 318s as a living I'd be a bit more upset.

But as a hobby, its just Bench Racing Banter. I know my skill level and what I have done.

I will never build another Flat Tappet Slider cam engine. The cams now days are crap, the lifters are crap and the oil is not made to support them. Its all about Rollers now.

The Lunati Cam in my stroker 410 5.9 is a mild one and a lot of these fokes that posted on here would yell at me for wasting a set of Aluminum Eldy heads for ONLY 400 HP.... and 500 Ft/Lbs from 2700 thru 5600, flat curve to a peak of 525 Ft/bl....Hyd Roller cam, roller 1.6 rockers. 219 deg @ .050" intake, 237 @ 0.050" Ex. Lift with 1.6:1 rockers is 0.549" intake and 0.565" exhaust.

This would be a good 5.2 cam and heads to get close to 400 HP too. Heads were a 'Black Friday' sale at Mancini for 2 loaded heads $1250
