Lunar is certainly showing great character in all of this. No one is perfect, we all make mistakes and this is a great example of how the common guy should handle a problem with a build.

Glad to see you going through with this! It will be great to see the numbers!

I'm super stoked! I'm so glad you are as persistent as I am!!

there was an artical in one of my old mopar muscle issues back in the 90's . there was a mopar expert who liked building Horse power engines especially when trying to use mostly stock parts! they used a 318 bored 30 over , 360 cast heads with 2.02 valves, speed pro pistons , stock rods ect including crank. then he used a dodge cast iron 4 barrel with Carter carb 625 cfm , stock electronic distributor and a comp cam and a set of basic headmen long tube headers ! that engine cranked out 375 HP with 388 ft. lbs torque . I bet I get people on here saying this isnt possible but the artical dyno numbers dont lie! hope your engine makes that or really close 🙏😎🤘

Man it’s been a long time coming. I can’t wait to see the results from the dino run. Still one of my favorite builds on KZfaq. Keep up the good work man, love your stuff.

reminds me of my brother (R.I.P. LIL BROTHER) and I thrashing on my 73 Duster and his 66 Mustang. good memories.

I'm glad you are sending that 318 back to Nick's, I appreciate your dedication! I'm really looking forward to seeing what it does on the dyno!

I admire your attitude and the way you've stayed with it. I'm not sure that I would have done the same.

I cant wait to see it ...been wondering what was go n on with the motor ...great project !!!!

Who cares if Tony has any thoughts on it at this point. It was a cool thing to do and I want to see what it does. I have a factory 318 in my 69 Dart and I was always curious what it does with the minor bolt on things and stock everything else. This would be what mine could do if I started tearing into it more. I'm looking forward to what it does and I'm sure Nick really cares to see what the nightmare he was handed does now that it's right.

You’re a class act! Now let’s see the numbers it makes! So many people pointing fingers and you just smile and keep moving forward, that’s a great way to go through life.

I'm thinking 300hp. Can't wait to see the results.🤓

Dang man, Now I'm all excited AGAIN to see it on the dyno! Have to WAIT AGAIN for #'s... 😃

Hope it does well. I’ve owned and driven a vehicle with a 318 from 1993 till now. Still got one in my old truck. Hope you get a HP per cube at least. Good luck guys.

Great scott, the knocking in that engine is more than my body can handle..... Ive already had one heart attack this week.

Oh yeah 318 going back to Nick see you over there!

You're a man of your word, cant wait to see what she makes!

It's cool that you decided to stick it out all the way through.

I had a 1965 Dodge Belvedere with a 318 auto and as far as I was concerned back then it was a free spinning V-8. I wish I still had it!

Thanks for following through with the 318 test on the dyno. I'm guessing 290, hoping for 300. Keep up the good work!

Dont say that about the snow! Haha I'm currently working over in yaphank on long island. Love the build keep up the fun.

I can't wait to see what the 318 will do on Nicks dyno now that it's healthy.

Hi there! Im doing almost exactly the same but in the other end of America (argentina), low dollar 318, painted black, for a black car, I give it the first run a couple of weeks ago. There it is starting to snow, here it just stop snowing and the sun is bright! Good luck Whith that proyect, I´ll stay tunned to see de numbers!

I quit your channel after that episode. I came back. I’m glad I did. Enough said

Back in the day, I had a 1969 Dodge D200 with the truck 318 ci 210 hp. A real puller and ran forever. Onward!

Your a better man then I, I would just wait especially with the cost involved... I get the anticipation 100% but hopefully in a few months when things start to thaw out your way things open back up. With that said I can’t wait to see what she will do.

Nice to hear you’re a Kiwanian. A great service organization. Many many people need help. God Bless you. I’m an old Mopar guy. All the best

Oh yeah.....can't wait .....☺👍 🙏

Well its April and i really want to know what the outcome was.. this build is DEFINETLY WORTH DOIN !! And has been alot of fun to watch..

Good to hear!

Nothing is over! -John Rambo

Lunar, I pick up leaves every 3rd day, it takes me 5 hours, just for the front yard, and that's using a riding lawn tractor also.. Your neighbors tractor, NO PROBLEM!!!! I can hear you just fine.. It's been a journey, I'd like to know what power this engine is making.

wow awesome , cant wait to see the engine at nicks , good job bryan on 10k subs your on the right track

Nice I like the state of the art blue shop towels protecting the exhaust ports! Gotta love it, do you still have the list of guess's for the HP contest.

This is a great project. The 318 is a great engine that is neglected. Great street racer. Sure not the greatest top end but tons of Tq for stop light to stop light.

Im the same way good job!🙏🏼🙏🏼💯💯

Great job everyone. Can't wait to see it finished. LOL

When you swapped the crank to a 340 did you change the pistons and rods i am fixing to do my first 318 scamp wish me luck

Good luck, Brian. Anything over 300 hp will be respectable to me. 350? I don't know- that's big block level. Would definitely like to see it, though.

Lots of knowledge and experience went into that motor with a lot of old parts and with lots of people and just a little bit of time, anything could happen. We really do want to know. This is it's upgrade.

You got some good friends in high places, rock on brother!

In my 71 duster 340 4speed I blow rod so I drop my head cams in a stock 318 and run 11.98 in quarter whit 7.5 comp ration my head was ported j head

I'm glad you are retesting . What is l.s.a. Yo are referring to ?. Something related to vacuum ? Google didn't come up with definition .

Hey man, I'm attempting to de-rust and rebuild a 5.3 Gen 3 Ls motor so Props to ya for doing this! I got a few negative comments but what the heck what's the worst that could happen!

How many psi of compression is it making?

HELL YEAH MAN!

Make sure it completely cleaned out

It's all worth it when your 318 kicks ass and beats up on all comers with more cubic inches!!!

Hi lunar you’re just like me it’s not over until it’s over.you want to do it right.. I think you will have good H P output,👍🔧

Would be cool to see 1 HP per C.I. at least! :)

Can't wait to see Nick dyno it.

Great job 👍👍🇨🇱

any update on the 318?

Get it back to Nicks when you can. Love to see it get a proper chance.

Did you take it apart and hot tank it?

Never give up on the engine until you're happy with it

Looks good now sorry about my last message

Should of sent that to Dulcich "Dog Farm" to build in the first place

Niiice

You should have Nick send it to me and I will test it. Nick and I discussed back to back dyno sessions with the same engine to compare our dynos

Something flies out when it turns over at 28:32 in video just underneath your arms

LET'S DO IT.

is the magnum 318 a good motor mine is a 92 how much hp can i get that motor up to

This is real news.

Are the push rods the right size or just new?

That 70's Show home remodeling

Good thing I fast forwarded seeing how the horse power number,s we're not posted . B.s video

I'll bet the guy that was mowing his lawn had a discussion with his wife and still doesn't know how to solve the situation.

I had a 75 Plymouth Fury with a 318, I drove the crap out of that car and destroyed it in a head on collision. It was a good car.

You did put the bearings on the crank cause last time you didn't and that cause one of the problem that fail the dyno right so now it all ready and I do want my ears to bleed to hear it roar on the dyno again.

First: Chassis dyno! Chassis dyno! Chassis dyno! I found three local to you! In his last video, Nick got 320 HP from a stock but worn 70 440 Magnum. He usually gets about what the factory rates the engine for stock but rebuilt engines. Except for the few engines that the factory intentionally rated less, like 340's and 426 Hemis. He gets a bit more for the engines he builds that have better than stock cams (which is nearly all of them). So I was expecting he would get 230 hp with your 318, the factory rating for your engine. That is the Gross HP rating for a 71 Satellite 318. The last year the rating was Gross, not Net. So, add a bit more HP for Tony's cylinder head porting, take away a few for the intake manifold modifications. I don't understand the specs on the cam. Overlap?? I grew up on the Mopar Bible. Lift and duration were all that counted. So I'll guess you have a bit more of each. I did not hear that you changed the compression. So I'd have to say there is no way you are getting 300 Hp on Nick's dyno. I keep asking why you don't go to a local shop and use a chassis dyno. I found three in your area. Ok, the HP numbers aren't very thrilling. Example: My college had dyno runs for members of the Automotive Sports club. My 72 440 Road Runner got 167 Rear Wheel Horsepower when it was 5 years old but in almost new condition. The highest of any car entered.The stock 400 Pontiacs and a 400 Magnum Plymouth got 130-135 horsepower the same day. After it was over, a built 12 1/2 to compression 350 with a .500-.600 inch solid lift cam got higher than me with 225 HP. At the wheel. I'm still bummed out about that 43 years later. Now, Nick is a super guy and makes great video. And I loved when you had the engine there before. But I think you could make something work and make good video with a close by tuner with a chassis dyno. Oh, people used to run around with stickers on their cars that said "Dyno Tuned" if they went to the famed tuners back around 1970. I'm sure that meant Chassis Dyno. Oh, why is the 904 junk? Does it need a rebuild? In stock condition it is plenty strong for a small block engine in a mid size car. And it can be built up stronger yet. And it uses less hp so it is a tenth faster than a 727 in the quarter mile. So said the Mopar Bible anyway.

Is it still a 318 if it.has a 340 crank? Are they the same stroke?

What ya doing with the truck. I'm interested!!!!

it's done for? pfft, there's no holes in the side! KEEP GOING!

That engine made about 200 at the crank....basic bolt ons will get it to about 270. Respectable for a re-ring engine with a cam. My guess is it won't live real long and probably have a lot of blow by.

Used engines are tough to pass through customs.

You do know there are dynos in new york state that would be a lot easier for you to do what you want to do.

Always interesting what those lil Mopars can do. That joker from engine master's pulled some impressive numbers for his 318 with a home porting job. What kind of plan do you have for the internals of your Hemi.

Good follow through on this

Personally I blame squirrel's

Change the spring. Or the oil pump.

Beat that 245! Should be easy!

So did you fix the oiling issue???

did this ever make it back to Nick's Dyno?

265hp

I'm gonna guess between 350 to 375 hp

Wheres the rebuild video with uncle tony

We're are you usa or canada

When was the engine getting dynoed? Did Nick give a day yet!!

I was always told by my mum "do a job well or don't do it all"

"ready to send"

TMT man just TMT

They put wrong bearings in it it'll spin bearings and lose oil pressure under load

Is there some hard feelings between lunar and uncle tony...

That 318 is gonna have more miles outside of the car than in lol I think it's safely in the 300 + hp range bottle rocket is probably in the 370 range

You said you have a new cam. Did the original get trashed ? Really secure that block to the crate - I've shipped many, many engines via truck and if what is pictured is done, you will have issues.

Not that I think anyone should care but I would have loved making it look like a period correct nascar racer.

I predict 306hp/323tq

Give up? No, no, no, no, no! It's gonna be/already is going great.

315hp My guess
