Making power out of the 318

He also asked to make 425 to 500 hp on a 3k budget now 400 hp on a 3k budget with 3.21 gears and a 318. He also asked what we would do to make 400 hp with 3k, I'm for 318 builds but sometimes people are asking the engine to be too many things. I've made suggestions on many different ways to try to accomplish his goals and 360 only being one of them, if he doesn't want to go that way fine like one of my signatures says "If your willing to gear it build it if not build a larger displacement, Or take solace in your compromises." People just don't seem to get how important gears are to smaller displacements not as important than a good stall but up there.
You are correct i will be getting new gears when i shred the 8 1/4 then will up grade
