Thanks for the reply Don. I will be doing a complete rebuild on the 218 with performance in mind. I am trying to decide between 2 carter singles for being period correct and a single two barrel for ease of finding parts and tuning. I inherited the car from my Grandfather and it has been sitting for the last 30 years with the head off so it has some rust in the cylinders even though it is in Arizona. I have an oil pump rebuild kit. I am looking for a 230 crank and rods if I can find them resonably priced. They're available from Vintage Power Wagons but are too rich for my blood. My local NAPA has everything for my rebuild except the cam and lifters. The machinist and I are good friends and he is a Mopar guy as well. He even has a set of .030 over flathead pistons sitting on the shelf.
