Worth with a big block cable shift tranny for sale? Parts to beef up the old 318 almost impossible to find. Last edited by Fredmopar; 03/19/12 11:58 PM.

As for the bottom end, it's still basic smallblock, so a stroker crank can be done. Buy a Hybrid!! I need your gas!!! Currently spending $1,000 a month to feed the Hemis!! Looking for that elusive CHEAP 71-72 Plymouth B-body 2 door OR 71-72 Coronet 4 door!!!
