With the truck the way you say it is and the way gas prices are and the availability of getting parts nowadays I wouuld stay with the 318. Sometimes its not all about power. With the transfer case and gears you will be able to multiply the 318 tork and do what ever you want to do. The 413 is a gas hog engine designed to work hard and put out tork. Finding rebuild kits for them is getting hard to come by. You may also find out putting that 413 into your truck will be a pain. Theres many varieties of the 413 and you might find it hard/pain to install it into the truck as the parts you have wont work and the ones you need are hard to find (Bellhousing,motor mounts,exhaust manifolds, radiator, alt and PS brackets).
