Since I'm a cheap ***, this is were I'm at. I bought a 1989 318 roller motor, only had 90xxx miles on it. It was out of a park ranger truck. All I'm going to do is a new timing chain, cam regrind, and oil pump/pickup and pan. I am trying to get 14-15 around town/ 220hp and lots of torque. Like my slant six I'm trying to o balance H.P and Economy.
Camshaft specs are 260/264 .437/.453 110LSA Oregon Cams grind 1006. Also adding a melling double roller timing chain.
Compression ratio, with the piston only .040 in the hole, and 64 cc heads flat top pistons I'll be at a nice 9:1:1 using fel pro .039 head gaskets.
Carbueration edelbrock 600cfm on a LB4d intake.
Other modifications already are fan clutch, mopar Ecu box. Also previous owner had ported out the head after getting a valve job on it! (302heads)
Exhaust has the magnum passenger and 73 340 exhaust manifolds to a dual to the bumper! Cheap thrush glass pack from work lol.
Car is a 1967 barracuda a904 with a shift kit from trans go, gears are 3.55(I don't do much freeway driving so the lower gear will help the fish move quicker off the line with out stomping the pedal). Trying to get a daily driver with a kick lol.
Motor cost 200.00
Oil pump 55.79
Oil pump pick up screen 18.49
Timing chain 35.79
Timing cover gasket 10.90
Paint 14.29
I'm at $335.26
