How much can I get out of a 318.

yes I believe the hi compression race kit in a 408 would be a better option. Would you guys run the Indy heads or stick to original w2’s
 
I have a 360 out of a dart. I could use. I have one 340 block yet but I’d really prefer to keep it for my cuda’s just in case. The duster already has a Dana 60 under it, has a roll cage etc. I’m going to admit I know nothing setting a car up for drag racing. or what class I would be in. The interior has been stripped it does have a fiberglass dash one racing seat and a 5 point harness. Would I need to find an interior to put back in it or ???? I just hate to spend a bunch of money redoing a car that wouldn’t be worth much of anything. I just don’t want to relive the truck pulling days of working all week to eat bologna sandwiches while the paycheck goes into the truck. No one is going to hurt my feelings. I’m not pretending like I know everything here. I got two sets of w2 heads left. One is for a 59 degree block and the other is for a 48 degree block but I have seen where guys have put the r3 style racing heads on a stock ish degree block.
The only 2 difference between 48deg/59deg is the steeples for the push rod and 15deg valves. 59deg no steeples 18deg valves. Intake face: don't know if there is any difference. If you are going W2 expensive. Will need different manifold. Finding one problem madic.. only intake made to date for is indy. EXPENSIVE non street. Race only. Only one I know of. Those of us that own a w2 intake ( duel plain) won't part with it. I looked for 6 years before got mine. New in mopar box. I found it in Hamberg. Not USA.
