Andy i would stay with the Poly their in a class of their own ,,one
faithful motor.
I've had one for me ride the past 20 years,,and I've got it pushing
325 horse power.
Every now and then i get on it ,,and people are surprised to hear its
a 318 Poly.
I have pic's of the motor and the car in action,,if you care to see
them let me know.

First off, I want to apologize to and thank everyone on this list. I
hope it doesn't seem like I keep asking the same questions over and
over - I'm just trying to make the most logical, well-thought out
decision I can...and you guys are my experts!
Most of you know my dilemma...
1 - rebuild the bottom end of my 318 Poly (needs new crankshaft and
bearings, I can get 2 other 318 Poly motors if I need them...)
or
2 - swap in a newer 360 (can get one for about 300 bucks...)
or
3 - swap in a 440 w/trans. (probably around 400 bucks or so for the
engine/trans...)
I have a 1 year time limit to get the car running/driving, and I do
need to watch my $$$. What would you do? I like the 318, and what can
be done with it (many thanks to Gary!!!), but I'm worried about the
price of aftermarket parts for it (headers, intakes, etc...). The 360
seems good because of plenty of aftermarket parts (intakes, heads,
headers, etc...). And the 440 - well, it's a big block. There's
something about a big block I can't put into words. However, I don't
know what the cost is going to be to make the modifications. I've got
one guy here on the island that is helping me (he's a mechanic, runs
his own shop), so I'm not totally blind with the situation.
I'm needing to make a decision fairly soon - I've got to get going on
this project - and I feel like I've got too many choices...so I sit
and spin my wheels over and over!
Can anyone help this hopeless Mopar junkie?
Thank you, again.
