In Reply to: 318 LA outperforms 318A poly... posted by Fred Coldwell on Tuesday, June 26, 2001 at 11:12AM :

about the diff, between the poly and LA-318. I will say, when using the 360 heads and intake,the LA-318 is breathing more like a 340 but loses some compression due to the larger chambers which can be fixed by milling the heads.Add a purple 340 cam and you've got a strong running 318 w/o alot of expensive perf. mods. So, 360 heads&intake,headers,and a 340 cam gives the 318 a smart little boost in performance.
You know, forum debates really do help straighten out many misconceptions and misinformation that has been passed around for years, I have found that even good mechanics can be wrong about many things and learned early on that it is wise to seek many opinions and read as much written info as possible,even then misinfo can still slip in. Many new ideas and concepts are probibly thought up right here due to the (sometimes) heated or passonate exchange of opinions and info on any given subject. I for one, enjoy a good debate as long as the truth and facts are the main objective,like seperating the wheat from the chaf.
