Thanks to all for the replys,i want to keep the pushbuttons and cant afford
to swap to a big block right now so i think i will try the cam and header
route for the poly and see how that works out.
One more question,is it safe to say this car should have a 727 trans being
its an original v8 car?
Thanks in advance

Welcome to Mopars, Tim!

Cost always depends on how fast you want to go and subsequent machine
shop / parts co$t.

Sounds like you already have some "air in" improvements over the usual
2bbl Poly 318 setup. You may need to just get a bumpier cam and some
exhaust headers via dual pipes to help pump spent exhaust out. That's
usually enough for a real fun street ride.

Don't forget to figure in the price of buying a 360 motor to put in, as
well as the changes needed to install it. That cost may cancel out any
parts and machine shop pricing differences.

People say it costs about the same to rebuild a 383 or a 440.
Anyone know if that's true for basic rebuilding of a Poly 318 vs basic
rebuilding a LA 318? Anyone?
