Hi Chuck,
The 318 was a great engine. I had a 1965 Dodge Coronet which I used for
4 or 5 busy years, then passed on to a family member, who used it for a
job on the road, and, in turn, passed it to another family member. One
of the best cars Dodge ever made.

Nope. My 1968 Dodge Charger was a tame little 318.

That goes for a lot of cars. Did you ever change the back plugs on a
Dodge 383 from the late 60s?

It's all a wonderful thing until you have to work on it.

So what's the advantage of "taking the weight off the wheels",
something to do with suspension tuning ?
In a static sense the wheels are still supporting the weight of the
discs (and all the rest of the car).
Poorly stated, He means that it reduces un-sprung weight. If the car
weighs a ton, and the suspension parts that move up and down weigh 500
lbs, the spring/shock system can't help transmitting lots of
movement to
the car. If the un-sprung suspensions parts weigh 50 lbs, the
suspension
can make the ride silky smooth.
