318 is a V8. They did make a slant 6 version. That slant six engine lasted forever for the times.

My Mom drove a Duster and my grandfather went on and on about the slant 6. I knew that was a duster immediately. Thx for the details!

Couldn't kill em, but they couldn't pass the emissions standards of the 80s.

Ah, the 318... I had a '72 Plymouth Satellite Sebring with that engine.

The B-52s were right. That thing could drive faster than the speed of light...

Same, but a '73. Mine died when it chucked a connecting rod.
