    Another 318 set up

    Because your beating use to death with questions looking for answers on something you yet have to obtain. As well as no clear direction. Try getting the damn car first, then try a modification and see how it works for you.

    What cam to use in a 318

    I love it!!!! A thinking man. Just what I’d like to know before a cam is selected along with a bit more information of course….. but cylinder head flow is really good to know. That depends on a slew of things. How far the piston is down the hole, how big the valves are & how much lift the...

    Headers

    Check out engine masters episode’s for more information. I think you’ll find there are also header wraps. The coating & wraps don’t keep heat in the chamber. They help keep heat in the header tube and out of the engine compartment so the engine doesn’t consume hot air as that doesn’t help make...

    What cam to use in a 318

    The extra exhaust duration helps get more exhaust gases out and will add a few more rpm to a single patterned camshaft. Headers or not. I running this one in my 5.9 with the trick Hughes springs and retainers. (727/2500 stall, 3.55 gears.) Mellings makes OEM repops. Patents expire after...

    What cam to use in a 318

    No. I’d recommend that cam with a minimum of a 2,500 stall converter, & a min of 3.55 gears with the typical 727/904 trans.

    What cam to use in a 318

    In my opinion, the 904 tap it diameter cam is overrated. It shows benefits and Racing that’s so much of the street. Hughes does have a trick spring kit for the magnum head for a lot more left. I think it’s two 550.

    What kind of lift do the Magnum’s handle stock?

    What cam to use in a 318

    The Comp Cams XE 268 below. .480 exhaust lift divided by 1.5 then multiple by 1.6 equals .512. I think it will clear. My purple 292/.509 cleared OEM J heads, you need to check your stuff out. DODGE COMP Cams 20-223-3 COMP Cams Xtreme Energy Camshafts | Summit Racing

    What cam to use in a 318

    RustyRatRod usually just writes .750 roller! LMAO! 6/8*’s smaller than a 340/360 would use. For what you described, I have done. I was very happy with a 218*@.050. It made for a very good driver and power to 5500 with headers, 2-1/2 exhaust, LD4B dual plane and a 600 carb. This is the max...

    Indy 360-1 Cylinder heads on small block LA's

    He no longer posts here but I just texted him for the answer. He just answered me with / I believe it’s the old Crane/MoPar Performance rockers.

    Another 318 set up

    Nope, 600 - min Nope, 1.88 at the min, 1.60 good Dang small cam! 2500 stall is the min. OK with the broom stick cam & gear ratio listed. Depends on how he point of view. I’d say no. Keep thinking! It’s good for the brain.

    Are Speedmaster Heads Good? I've Heard a Lot of Bad Press on Edelbrock 340 Heads Lately

    Well, I found my “769” W2 race head flow sheet but I can’t quickly find the ported sheet. It went 324cfm with a 2.08 valve. I don’t remember the valve stem size though. I know I should! This particular head was the latest and last head with MP revisions.

    318 with Edelbrok perfomer intake and 600 cfm 4 barrel, what headers please?

    OK, by by. You’ll get over it. LMAO No. I don’t know where you read that but not all articles are actually factual. 1 case in point I was reading some guy said you don’t want more than a 200cc runner on your 440, ever. Yea! We know this guy don’t know a freakin thing! As suggested earlier, a...

    318 with Edelbrok perfomer intake and 600 cfm 4 barrel, what headers please?

    Absolutely agree. Many times people will post the question but state they don’t want to spend the big bucks. I get that! This is where I say use the Summit Racing headers and there exhaust kit for the car.

    318 with Edelbrok perfomer intake and 600 cfm 4 barrel, what headers please?

    You say this, not I. It’s is a proven fact that has been done over and ver again by not only magazines but by members here. So you can “LOL” all you want, it works and no matter the amount of nay saying you say, at the end of the day you’re still wrong. Your also misleading members by being a...

    318 with Edelbrok perfomer intake and 600 cfm 4 barrel, what headers please?

    This is completely wrong. 100%. Sorry buddy, been there done that just like 318willrun. Headers will add torque & horse power and mileage. I suggest one of two headers. The above Doug’s headers or the Summit headers. The Doug’s do not have any tubes that go below the steering linkages on the...

    Your considered opinion on heads please

    Given the 3 choices, I personally would run the Speedmasters and have them bowl ported before they were used. If f spending the money is not an issue to you, follow me advice. The Speedmaster heads unported will out flow the OEM Iron heads. Porting the bowls is just more power.

    Are Speedmaster Heads Good? I've Heard a Lot of Bad Press on Edelbrock 340 Heads Lately

    Yep, like said above, the standard LA intake and exhaust bolt patterns are used making any ‘66 plus intake or exhaust a bolt on. IMO, these heads on a 340 will be really nice.

    Promaxx gets the Chink castings and machines them here erasing the crap work into excellent work. I have a set of CNC small block heads. Veeeeeery nice!

    Are Speedmaster Heads Good? I've Heard a Lot of Bad Press on Edelbrock 340 Heads Lately

    Not with the set I got. Still made in America cast in California. It happens with every head manufacturer, bar none. You just hear more of anything Edelbrock because they outsell everyone else combined, so there is more good and bad press about them. They blow chunks over the last 2 sets I...

    Anyone Run a Crane Z-268-2 Cam in their 318?

    You already have the cam, run it. It’ll make for a nice easy driver. If you’re looking for that muscle car sound as well as increased torque, look for a cam a 108 LSA. Take a peak at “Howard’s cams.”

    Anyone Run a Crane Z-268-2 Cam in their 318?

    That’ll have a mostly smooth idle and make OK decent power. I ran a very similar Crane cam in a stock long block ‘79 - 318, 904,w/3.21 gears, hooker headers into a Jegs dual exhaust, LD4B and a 600 Holley. With regular stock sized tires it could get into the high 14’s easy enough. Traction was...

    CNC Ported Heads for 318 Poly?

    There is/was a fella on the B body site that went to town on porting the poly head on his build. Sorry I can’t remember his name. He was doing unusual stuff for his build. Custom domed pistons etc… I hang out with Charlie Servedio in which you can copy and paste into the YouTube search bar to...

    Carb recommendations for my 340

    That’s true. I have an 800 AVS on my 10.5-1 - 340 with a XE285HL. Actual flow, IDK. I did flow test a Edelbrock 600 AFB and it did flow 600 cfm. I was toying with the carb grinding away at it and managed a best of 715 cfm - IIRC. I did this on Charlie’s flow bench along with a video on it. I’ll...

    Carb recommendations for my 340

    He probably didn’t proofread the mistake. I’m pretty guilty that myself. I’m pretty sure this member knows that but 650 AVS is what I think he was after.

    Cheap 318 performance mods.

    A lot can be said for that.
