RE: Engine swap Question
ORIGINAL: rtkota5point9
One thing you can do is look into a Flash. Call up B&G and see what they say about it, then maybe you can just swap in the engine and flash your PCM to work with it.
But you can make some great numbers with your 318. Swapping engines will only gain you about 20HP. And almost anything that can bolt to a 360, will bolt to your 318, so aftermarket parts aren't a big deal. Hell, you could just get it bored out to a 383 and get a flash and you'd be stylin.
Look into it further though, keep researching, and make some phone calls. I'm sure it can be done. Swapping engines just isn't like it used to be though.

With some PCM work (aftermarket) I can use my 318 and BUILD THE CHIT OUT OF IT?
The problem with the swap to the 360 is timing, firing order, and just the other component swaps preventing an easy swap?
BUT using a monster 318 should maintain almost everything the stock computer needsand can run?
Looking now at all the possibilities for the 318 rebuild.
