Re: 1971 plymouth duster 318 super stocker
If there are no 4 barrel 318 in the 1970-1972 Dusters for you to run a natural class, you can instead run your car in a GT class and run whatever year 318 combo that you would like. We have a 72 Duster we run in the brackets and if we go Super Stock with it, we plan on run the car in a GT class. Hope that helps.

Re: 1971 plymouth duster 318 super stocker
thanx Cutta
its looks like if I use a 1980 318 4 barrel in a 1971 duster it would be a GT/GA thats what figured out but I could be completely wrong lol |

Re: 1971 plymouth duster 318 super stocker
There are quite a few 318 SS cars running around the US. The first 318 4v was in 1978 in a Volare/Aspen. You could go through the different year combos (and different factors) to see which one fits the Duster the best.

Re: 1971 plymouth duster 318 super stocker
We LOVE and race 318 Mopars. However, The 71 340 High Compression engine @ 279 and
72 340 Low Compression @262 in SS are way better than a 318 Low Compression @ 250 or 254 in our opinion for your Duster. E mail us if you need any more about these combos. |

Re: 1971 plymouth duster 318 super stocker
why do you want to run a 318? if the 340 is a better engine for hp rating, it seems you should look into that combo.

Re: 1971 plymouth duster 318 super stocker
Not a big diff in horsepower 318 vs 340 go with the 340.
