"Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?"
I never heard the 318 poly called elephant before. That term was usually reserved for the 426 hemi. The 318 was a small block, the A engine. The LA was a later, revised version, started as 273, then 318, later 340 and 360. The poly heads looked much bigger, so I've heard them called "whale" blocks, though I don't think they were actually any bigger. It won't bolt up to a big block trans.

Wasn't the 318 in 1964 the elephant ear Poly big-block?

The 318 will not bolt up to your imperial tranny. Small block trans verses a big block trans

Does anyone know if a 1964 318 will match the motor mounts configuration on a 1964 LeBaron in order to switch engines while I have the 413 worked on?
