Seth,
Its a non mag 318... The heads were 70 318 castings. Its got 1.98" ss
tuliped intakes, 1.6 ss exhaust. (wierd intake size eh?) The porting wasnt
too extensive, but whatever he did works great! This guy likes the stock
318 heads over the X or W2 heads as a starting point for a hot street motor.
I guess I cant complain since the 318 has low end grunt like my R/T + 6700
rpm capability!
Bruce
