Has anyone ever stumbled onto any info to put a 318 in a Sapporo (or Challenger of that time)?
A friend is tossing the idea around. Someone must have played with this

I've seen a couple over the years. I can't believe there's one that hasn't rusted away. My wife bought one new in '78 and it needed substantial rust repair by '82.

We built one in high school with a 383 in it. Fit rally good and even ran the stock rear end.If I can find my pics I will post them up.

One of my friends just sold his 82 challenger with a 383 Chevy and a glide. Looked like it fit fairly well.

I built one using 67 GTO drive train. Freaky to drive but a lot of fun.
