What would this type of combo give ya in hp/tq, like an estimate. 318 #9 flowmaster 40 (nocat),mopar pcm.

I have heard these heads flow a lot better. And i am sure the headers will improve the flow also. I really would like to get the M1 or some other intake.

I havent been able to get any stock flow numbers on these heads at all. They outflow stock heads according to edelbrock but the question is by how much. Since the combo you have is not highly modified rt heads would probably be cheaper and give close to the same numbers, plus they probably have smaller ports for better throttle respose. If you do change heads a new cam shoudl probably go in too, like an rt cam or something a little more radical. This is all speculation though, until someone tests these in a magazine or something it is hard to say. The stock heads support 380 hp in crate form so I dont think they are the restriction on a 318, since it is a smaller engine and needs less air to begin with.

Then you are not trying very hard.
