Re: dodge 318
Block is the same. You can definitely do it. Being Mopar though, the conversion might end up costing you! You'll have to find an outdrive set up for the 318, at least the bellhousing and coupler. Then you'll need the marine alternator, starter, circulator pump and distributor. You can get any intake you want as long as the carb you find fits it. You'll need to replace the freeze plugs with brass ones, especially if you're going to raw water cool it. The cam will likely have to be replaced, but not totally sure. I'm sure there's more I'm leaving out but you get the idea. <br /><br />You might end up spending as much as you would on a 5.0 or 5.7 GM-based rebuilt engine, and the latter would likely come with a warranty. There's a lot more to it than I think you're envisioning. <br /><br />Good luck, whatever you decide to do!
