hey fellow fabo I have a 71 318 and just looking to up the cam a little. The motor is staying stock except for edel intake and holly 600cfmany thaughts
 
Yeah! May want to put this in the right section! This is the classifieds. Try the small block section! Could also contact a MOD they are in Red on the front page in members list and ask them to move this for you.
 
I would go with a Comp XE262H
Should work well with your combo. Look it up.
 
A cam with the intake duration between 212-&-218 w/approx 8*'s more duration on the exhaust side or better since your using exhaust manifolds.
 
Be conservative on the cam with a near stock motor.
Knowing your gear ratio would be helpful also.​
Most name brand cam manufactures like comp,crane,hughes and lunati should have ones that work with stock converters also.
 
The stock 340 cam should be a nice upgrade. Been done lots of times. That's what my tired ol 318 has in it - worked good, but my engine is now pretty well worn out & tired.
