Put a 440 in it

C'mon....there is plenty of relatively simple things that he can try to help his package out. A 318, especially in an A Body will run.

Sure it can, but dollar for dollar a 440 will run much harder. Just throwing out options, really depends on what he wants and what he can do

I was suggesting it more to stir the pot but honestly based on some of the other suggestions if he's going to get into swapping pistons (possibly honing required especially if going KB Hyper), heads (valve job?), possibly machining rods and crank depending on how old the build is, cam, couple hundred bucks for a marginal increase in gears, couple hundred for a slightly better torque converter he could be money ahead finding a strong running 440
