318 low-rpm performance ........... for the NEWBE
my 1st car 68 dart 270 had the taxi package hd suspension 318 stock rebuild 9.2 to 1 it had headers 2.5 exhaust 727 8 3/4 3.23 sg 489 housing still had the 2 barrel carb aka (flower pot carb) it pulled pretty good to 5000 as purchased . I put on an offy dual port 360 and a 625 afb carb had g-60-14s on the rear i had that 5400 rpm in drive 100 times on the hiway at least. Later 2.02 j heads street hemi cam torker door stop 650 dp and nitrous. pulled very hard to 6500 rpm. 6000 rpm in drive atleast 30 times a white knuckle ride with 4 wheel drums.
318 motors can sing
Fav memory a guy a grew up with selling hotrods had a beautiful 66 or 67 vette maroon ragtop 327 4 spd sidepipes
sounded good he wanted 15k for it i beat that pos pretty easy no spray loud doesnt equal fast he learned that lesson
