360 Aftermarket Heads on 318

That 7177 is too big for a 318. The duration is 300/310, if it's a hi revving bracket car maybe. JMO 65'

Look at the duration @.050 & you’ll change your tune. If not, I don’t know what to say. IMO, the cam is NOT big.

I agree it's too big, I'm hoping to combat that with better air flow that crams more air into the cylinder since the intake valve doesn't close until 44* ABDC. But I'm just trying to make some solutions with out swapping the cam completely. personally I think a 340 or 360 intake with 360 heads could solve most of that...hopefully. lol
Thanks for the response!

WhT you really need is a better cam.

I just read AJ’s post and I concur. You need more static compression to begin with.

Disagree. In a major way. AJ can write out all the math in the world and make me look bad but until you have actually been there and done that, please move aside.

I have a question for you!

If he doesn’t have enough compression, how did the Dodge NASCAR trucks make over 700 hp with only a measured 9.0-1 compression ratio?

OK…. Moving on…..
