318 with a 4 barrel......... I would have never bought a new one with a small block, these cars are way too heavy and the hp and torque output of a 318 just isnt there

What's with you and Magnums today???

I was thinking the same thing .........perhaps Bob is looking for a later B body

Looking for a 78 Magnum with a 400......

This one is a train wreck!

 

[polara71]

Thats why it is where it is

A friend of my dads bought one new just like that, triple black with T-bar roof and a 400 4 barrel.

My 318 does just fine in an even heavier car Thank You.

 

[polara71]

which heavier car is that?

 

[theos911]

I stand corrected. Looks like they are nearly the same in weight.

I stand corrected. Looks like they are nearly the same in weight.

Presuming you looked it up, what did you find?

 

[theos911]

I looked up my fury a while ago and came up with 3,800 and some change. I just checked wikipedia and it has the magnums at "weight was nearly 3,900 lb."

My original assumption was that a B would be lighter than a C. ops:

The poly 318 in my 65 Coronet does well as long as you keep in mind it's not a high performance engine. 20/21 MPG. BUT the poly 318 in my 64 D200 dodge crew cab is just not enough to get the job done. You learn to enjoy the scenery on a long hill.

 

[polara71]

honestly I thought the Magnum weighed in over 4000 pounds... if Wik is correct, thanks

 

[theos911]

With my spare, jack, and the other crap I carry in the trunk I'm probably weighing in at 3,900 anyway.

........360?

 

[polara71]

I knew you'd throw that number out there...........No, I would always have ordered a Big Block if I had the chance. NOw, I wouldnt shy away from a 360 if thats what " it " had

No really, I always thought these were 360 powered cars. Didn't know magnums came from the factory with only 318's. Would've thought it be the 360 and 4bbl setup.

Oh the horror of it all
comparing THAT to what a.....big block Cuda back there, is that what that is?
