Hi,
The 318 uses a different bellhousing pattern than the slant (B/RB different also), so your choice might be dictated by the trans you have...
I think the Helitool kit availability makes the 318 much easier. The combine motors might be kinda weird, esp. with the water pump mounting and such.
You're in Iowa, correct? I live near Cedar Rapids and have a few spare engines/transmissions/brackets/etc, let me know if you need anything.
regards,
mark
