I have an original 68 cuda 318 car. Can I swap out that 318 for a newer one ? If so what year? Thanks,Bruno

Yes...most 318s are the same. Of course if you go too new, you'll run into fuel injection & computers. Not sure exactly which years started all that, but yea any 318 should bolt up. :2thumbs: I have heard the older ones have more power (compression,emissions).  Maybe someone more knpwledgeable will chime in. :popcrn:
