I’m gonna get the machine shop check it out and come to a game plan.. you can tell it had miles on it but there was some cross hatching left and I didn’t feel and ring ridge..they may only need to hone it and put new rings.. which would be ideal. Also gonna have then put new bearings.. the crank journal surface looked really good but the bearing on the #1 rod cap didn’t look amazing so.. no reason to not do that as well while we’re at it.. ought to be a peppy engine once it’s done..
I'll have to rethink my carb for it.. my original plan was to put a performer intake and a Holley 670 that I picked up from a close friend on the original 318 but with the new found engine, I scored a rpm air gap from a fellow member here and I may step it up to 750-800 maybe? I know a lot of Mopar guys like the new AVS carbs.. I’m not a guy who only uses certain brands.. I’m not lookin for max effort but something that works.. the edel is a little more affordable brand new..
