I hope that you tied that motor down before you took it where it was going. That is alot of weight comming up front if you have to lock up the brakes.

there was a time i ran 275's on all 4 corners. it looked pretty mean.

Was that on a 3rd gen? If so, do you have any pictures?

I am not to big a fan of equal size wheels, the back has to be bigger

Here are the pictures just getting the block out of the tank



Here is a picture of Ray weighing the pistons, he will probably end up lightening them.



I have been wokring alot lately so I havent had too much time to work on the car, but I get off tonight.

Look at the pic of the block on the dolly. You can see the rust holes threw the freeze plugs. There was so much crud built in there I doubt they leaked!

You can use a driverside 318 mount on a 360, if you use a spacer.
 
just installed the mounts on my 360  for that spacer I used a 1/2" nut for spacer with threads drilled out to fit on a grade 8 shoulder bolt keeps things tight with no angle to that bolt

[SG1022]

Well I changed plans from 308 Castings to Magnums.

I got the heads, bolts, covers, valves and a few extras for 150$ from a local store.

Now I just have to find somebody who wants mopar performance valve covers for a small block non magnum

It's been a while, but my project is still progressing(albeit, slowly).

Last week I pulled the old 318 out of my car, and have the engine bay pretty well cleaned out , except my booster and steering column, which I am going to leave in.

My 360 Magnum build is almost finished we are just waiting on an oil pan, pick up, Carb, air cleaner and front timing cover.

Crappy cellphone pictures are better than no pictures,




My plan right now is to finish removing the components on the firewall, then to pressure wash my engine bay, degrease, and hit it with 60 grit then primer/paint with some gloss black, then put the magnum in there.  After that I am going to check my fuel tank's insides and clean it, and if it is satisfactory hopefully I will get to start it.

I should have more pictures after I get off work on Monday.
