I have a 318 in one of my Darts that is mated with a 42RH 4 speed OD automatic, and has 2.94 gears. 8.5:1 compression, Edelbrock Performer intake and a 650 AVSII. It is a long distance road trip car. I believe that the current cam is not serving me well - 17mpg on the road, lack of vacuum for...

Hey there! I recently rebuilt my 70s LA 318 and in the motor and in the process of breaking in the new flat tappet cam / hydraulic lifters we ran into an issue and had some coolant make it's way into the oil due to a gasket failure which worried me a bit so I ended up taking the intake off to...

I’m looking for the bolt with a hole that holds on the cam thrust plate and also the piece of metal that drips oil on the timing chain. Thanks jesse

Hi team lets me start with thanking all of you for the patience and the knowledge you provide. great stuff. so i had a couple other posts where i mentioned the 74 Duster 318/904 car i got and the different possible routes that i considered to go. i checked on the OEM engine and its a runner...

This will probably open up a can of worms as this subject has been well covered but I am interested in some recommendations that folks have actually built and ran. Here are the particulars. Care is a 73 Dart swinger 3.23 geared 25" tires factory high stall converter in 904 with a TF-2 shift...

Having a hard time getting the answer I’m looking for, so I’m going to try this again. I’m building a LA 318 out of a 74 satellite with the most amount of stock parts and cheap mods as possible. I’m new to all this and I don’t have a lot of money to work with . I want to put a cam in this engine...

What is the biggest cam you can put in a LA 318? I saw something about you can’t put high lift cams in them without grinding down the valve stem guides. Also, what mods other than springs will need to be done?

Hey, I have a 318 74 Gold Duster that I have a Holley 650 classic Edelbrock intake and then I have a set of hooker headers and a 2.5in exhaust. so next I'm looking for what is a good cam that I can easily street but has a good lope and a little more power. But one that does not have a high...

After learning how to install cam bearings, buying the installation tool and doing it myself for the first time, the last thing I wanted to do was to do it all over again. Overkill? Perhaps. Did it work? PERFECTLY. Not one nick, mark or scratch on the fresh new cam bearings.

I'm freshening up a 1974 low comp 318 with a quick hone, new plasma moly rings and new bearings. I done some home bowl porting & port matched the 675 heads with larger 1.88 / 1.60 valves. SCR will be around 8.5:1 with Mr Gasket 1121G (0.028") head gaskets. Using a port matched Performer intake...

Used 318 roller cam and hyd roller lifters out of '85 or '86 Chrysler. $175 shipping included to US contiguous. Perhaps a good candidate for an Oregon Cam performance regrind? Since no one was interested in the complete 318 I've been offering I decided maybe someone some of semi-desirable...

Hi guys Im researching to turbo my 318 in my Aussie Valiant and wanted some advise on a cam choice. Im looking at building the following 8.5-9.0 comp Edelbrock rpm heads Victor 340 intake Holley Sniper throttle injection Holley Sniper ignition package to plug and play with the injection Im...

What's up guys? Hey so wanted to reach out to the experts here... I'm really wanting to wake up my 318 a bit. I've been researching a lot but wanted to reach out and see what you guys think. I'm debating on buying new heads and a cam to make some power, but I do have a set of old 587's that...

I pulled my cam out and the 4 bolt plate off the end and not sure if that is supposed to have a gasket or seal behind it ?

My engine builder has suggested the Comp Cams XE-250 or the XE-252. Since I'm cam "dumb" I would appreciate some guidance. Some details about the car/engine to the best of my knowledge: The machine shop performed an .030" over bore on the cylinders, polished the crank and added(?)...

...I've found out, the 340 cam has a ivc point of 69* and this brings down the dcr to like 6.63:1 ( 18 psi lower cylinder pressure than a stock 318 cam ). Wouldn't this hurt performance rather than help? I based this on a 1973 318 with a 8.6:1 cr. Did I figure something wrong or have the wrong...

I am having my 318 rebuilt with new rings, bearings, rods, pistons etc.... The engine will have a roller cam installed and I am wondering if a high zinc oil is still required? The engine will be torque plate honed. From what I have read it should be run in on dino oil but can't see where zinc...

New Crower Hyd Flat Tappet Cam. #31205 Fits 273-360 Engs LA. Check the cam card For Lift/Duration $200 + Shipping Western PA Pittsburgh

I've read a lot on the use of the 340 cam in the 318. With the 340 being a performance engine, wouldn't the duration at 0.050" be 228* on the intake and 235* on the exhaust? My question is, isn't that a lot of duration at 0.050" for a 318?

For the 318, would the lunati 701 be a good choice for what I'm wanting to do or the 700? I used a compression ratio calculator put in all the required information and it said that I would have a 9.40:1 CR. Is that a good compression ratio for either 1 of those cams? I don't want to have to back...

Hey guys I am very frustrated with this issue and it's the only thing left to do in order for me to assemble my 318. I went to Hughes for a suggested cam and they did just that, suggested. It was late September and I ordered one from Hughes. Didn't hear from them and after 3 weeks I reached out...

Just for ***** and giggles what's the biggest cam everyone has run on a stock or 90% stock 318? I bet my custom grind for my 318 magnum dirt track engine (stock except pistons flipped, air gap intake and a stromberg WWC 2 barrel carb) has everyone beat LOL. ***SPrings do not count towards the...
