318 low-rpm performance ........... for the NEWBE
i will disagree my 340 with the 218@50 454 lift 110 106 is a great street cam some lope
would be a even bigger in the 318
I had a Crane 272/284-216/228-454/480-112 in a 318 twice.
I agree with AJ. 220 or better. Under 220, I’d call it enhanced performance.
If you build a 318 340 snd 360 with stock bore and 3.31" vs 3.58" vs 4.00" cranks, would be 318 vs 333 vs 340, 344 vs 360 vs 367, 384 vs 402 vs 410, are we really talking big differences between bore cid potential? Especially comparing 318 vs 360 blocks with same crank there's very little difference between the two.
Surprised with all the 408 strokers that a turned down 360 crank for a 344-360, 318 strokers aren't popular. Guess might as well go 4".
Bigger bore directly impacts HP possibility but it’s not huge or a big factor until you really start twisting up the engine.
My plan is to go with a 4" in my 318 (unless a 360 LA block falls into my lap) I can't see buying a different block to gain 18cubes..
That’s the whole thing AJ missed. If you already have a 318 & not a lot of money (or you just want the challenge of making power with less cubes,) then spending an extra *** dollars doesn’t make a lot of sense. According to AJ, it’s a waste of time and money because it’s too small and not worth the effort.
The ringer quickly points to a bigger engine which makes sense unless you don’t have the funds in which we all know AJ is swimming in money since he has no care or concern about anyone wants, wishes or limitations and becomes a hypocrite because he should have went straight to a stroker and poked big block.
Another obvious stab in the back post to the forum members, their wallet thickness and Ma MoPar.
I and constantly floor but the callus brow beating disparaging posts against the members wanting to build there 318. Constantly being spoken down too and there arms twisted into spending more money on a 340/360. Even more so the 340 block that runs from $700-$1,000 in a unknown condition which could be complete garbage & money thrown out the door.
I won’t go against the bigger is better but if you don’t have the funds and just similar to build that 318 you already have….
Freakin go for it!!!!
AJ the 318 hater strikes again only in a GRAND FASHION!
On freaking believable!!!!!!
