I picked this up today and was hoping it would fit a 360/ 318 but am told it will not. Its a 273 dual 4 manifold. Now I am considering a simple 273 if I can find one cheap enough.

I am still trying to decide. If I go with a small block, I was some unique stuff on it. I would like a 5.7 HEMI but they are just too much. I dont need a big motor, just something reliable for the 38 Plymouth that will fit under the hood.

Dave............I think that manifold will fit the 273 and/or the poly 318 engines and not the newer 318/360s.

If you are selling it let me know.

No specs yet. Just started mocking up. Poly 318 in a 40 Desoto.

It won't fit a Poly, as the Poly's are I-E-I-E-I-E-I-E and the Wedges are E-I-I-E-E-I-I-E. There was a bolt hole issue with the early 273's (different angle of the bolt holes or something like that) but there is a good chance that with little to no modification it would work on a 318 head as well. That said, if you really want to use it, I would consider something along the lines of hotroddave40's 318 build...but you can choose how "economical" you want to make it as far as cam/carbs are concerned. A couple 450cfm vacuum secondary 4-bbls would be a max effort, but a 302 headed 318 is capable of some decent snort without breaking the bank.

Just a thought...

71 318 from Challenger

Here is my 1966 440 mill in the 36 Dodge coupe.It has a Hughes cam 538 lift don't remember the duration at the momement,ported 452s,9.5 squeeze and of course the six pac.Nice running combo not sure of the mileage.When I go on out of state trips I pull the 4.10s out and slip the 2.56 gears in the 8 3/4,that helps in between gas stops.lol

That intake is definitely not an old 318 "wideblock" intake... looks like it would be fun though!

This is my Coupe the way I drove it for years. It was a 10 to 1 440 with worked 906 heads, 484 MP cam and not much in the way of "high buck" stuff.
The car had 4.10 gears, a 727 with a 3200 stall, and it weighed 2910 pounds.

It moved pretty danged good, it got VERY good gas mileage FOR WHAT IT WAS, and it was reliable as heck. A true daily driver for years. The only real downside was the 4.10 gears to be honest, I should have went with a 3.23 or something....
