ive always felt the 318s were overlooked potential.

 

[Ben Drinkin]

should be good for 240hp... plus it looks like an aftermarket intake and carb on there... going in ??

Eddy performer intake (powdered by our very own Cuda Chick) and either a 1406 or a Holley 600... Not sure which yet..

 

[Ben Drinkin]

68 Barracuda? 74 Dart? right?

So close!!! 69 Barracuda, 73 Dart Sport (actual 340 car)..

 

[Ben Drinkin]

my first 318 - 72 Scamp, headers, dual exhaust, intake, 4bbl., and an 8 3/4 w/3.23's - - slightly bigger tires on the back... not a hot rod by any means, but it agile and quick

Plan is OD 4 speed and 3.73's in the rear.. Should make a nice cruising mobile...

If I would have been building it internally, I'd have bumped the compression and thrown on some J heads and put a cam in it. Probably would have run just fine. But since there was nothing really wrong with it as it sat, just freshen it a little and get it on the road... I'll spend the cash on the 340 and the 360 to replace them..

Yeah. my original idea for the dart was to build a 400+ hp 318. but when the 318 I got for free was found to already have been bored .060 and the cylinders rusted to the point of needing sleeved, i kind of fell into the 440.

only the very beginning. this is a vintage set like one of the ones I had as a kid, way back in the early 2000s

I am going to set it up today just enough to verify its complete and works before leaving feedback on fleabay

this is memory lane right here.

This is only the start, I got a set so I can get some starter track and a power pack, better than getting everything individually. I probably wont even use this track, later when I get really into it.
