a $50-$100 magnum intake for a carb where can they be found? how do we get the fuel to the carb on the cheap with a magnum on this truck? these "little" things add up.
the thread says "cheap 318 build" and as per moparts protocol we have the usual build a 360 or go magnum suggestions, soon it will be build hemi. we have ventured way off course here.
lifted85 if you want to swap heads, pull a set of 302 heads from an 85 up to 91 (premagnum) 318 car/truck/van in a junk yard. get a valve lapping tool(suction cup, very cheap), some valve lapping compound(also cheap) and lap the valves. there are videos on how to do this on youtube. its easy. put some 901 springs on using the stock retainers/keepers. call it done. another cheap upgrade, replace the heavy advance spring in the distributer with a light one(think ball point pen thickness) take the heavy spring to a hardware store and match up the length(cost is probably less than a dollar)
What are 901 springs? Can you elaborate
Thanks
comp901-16 springs = single spring/damper are drop on spring with no machine work, uses stock seals/retainers and coves most stock/mild SB cams.
I have used them on 4 Lunati flat tappet VooDoo cams and 1 lunati 60710 roller cam, I just used another set with the Hughes whiplash roller cam, which is almost exact specs as the lunati voodoo roller cam.
nice bang for the buck for SB spring at 80$ a set
