Why the 318 is a phenomenal engine...

6,500 rpm out of a stock 2 bbl, cast exhaust manifolds 318. Amazing !
Better hang on to that one !
Still got 'er running in the truck. I will be swapping her out for a 360 though this summer BUT for a good reason. More torque for 4 wheel drive and to tow around the Toyota mini truck that Im swapping the 318 into! 7,500 solid flat tappet tunnel ram 318 is the plan. The mini truck only weighs 2,100 pounds according to forums so that's an easy 11 second vehicle
