Are the 318's the old "Big Blocks"? if so, they are vertually the
same blocks as the the 383's, 413,s qand 440's, which would be easier
to overhaul and get the horsepower/torque you're looking for.



The MoPar 318 came in a big block version?

Never knew that.

Yes, Richard.

As a matter of fact, they did. There was the 60's 318 "A" block, up
intill I think about 1967 or '68, then chrylser happened to come out
with the 318 "LA" in a small block version. Wich was essentially in
the family of the 273(?) 340, 360

That;s like in the 60's, Pontiac had a 326 and the 389, and 428 had
the same block same block
