All slants have the same bore size only the stroke varies.
The 170 has the shortest stroke and if you have to built a high rpm screamer use one of these. The 198 is a stroked 170 (with the block raised to accommodate the stroking). The 225 is a stroked 198.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

I'd say it depends on what your primary motivation is. If it is to go reasonably fast for cheap, then personally I would leave the slant right there and move on. A used SB would IMHO be a quicker-to-implement, easier, cheaper, and faster-when-finished undertaking. If you want to travel a different route from the crowd (well you are already doing that in a Mopar, but let's say a different route from the Mopar crowd  ), then knock yourself out. A good turbo slant would be fun to see and I'm sure very rewarding to do. But it sounds like to former to me?

yes. find a good running 318 or 360 magnum. ~$300-500 get a 4bbl intake for it (used magnum M1, or PP crosswind or eddie magnum air gap). pull the cam, have it reground by bullet cams using their HR259/316 lobe ($150). get hughes #1110 valve springs ($100) and their cam snout extender ($20?), and either their retainers ($60) or junkyard retainers off of a couple 2.2L/2.5L chrysler 4 cylinders.
if you pull the heads, get a good 5 angle valve job, opening the seats up to 1.9/1.605", do a little bowl blending/valve guide profiling, and open up the pushrod pinch some.
run summit brand small block headers and a 600-650 cfm carb.
should be an honest 300-340 HP, 330-380 TQ for under a grand.

I do have a non-running 318. However, if I were to get it built up and swap it with the slant wouldn't I need to change the K-frame and the transmission? It is a stock 318 out of a 70 or 71 Cuda (not sure which one) with a Holley 2-bbl and exhaust manifolds.
But then again, it is just a little 318, nothing too special.
