Magnum Heads

Woody'sScamp said
Hi all,
I'm trying to learn as much as I can and I'm looking at all options for upgrades for my '75 318 smog, (except a $$$ 390 stroker., can't afford.) No racing, just a cruiser with a little more HP. The 302 head is in my head now as I've got is a LD4B, 600 Eddy carb and 340 HP manifolds. I've read a lot of threads and articles about 300 to 400 HP 318's and one had to do with using magnum heads.
1.If I use 360 Magnum Heads on my 318 smog motor will it work with my LD4B manifold?
2. If not, what is the best aftermarket manifold for magnum head?

Thanks

Well, for "just a cruiser with a little more", You're shootin' a bit high in the 300-400 hp range!....lol. First a decent cam is up, and the final squeeze & fast burn the 302's provide combined with that intake will be more than a little more, plenty for fun & cruising. Mags mean $$$, pushrods AMC lifters, new intake etc. You have enough to burn tire & have fun even w/o changing heads, good cam & carb with that intake & go...
