Punch Gran Puro Sierra from Honduras, General Cigar Co. Best Smoke out there for the mone, but not for the light hearted smoker. Very nutty, spicy smoke, white ash and good to the last draw.

Best place to find this flex plate? The one on my crank is much smaller and not round like your picture. Mine is a modified cross shape. My 360 engine was out of a 78 Dodge Magnum.

The more info I get regarding balance problems encountered in doing a 318 to a 360 swap, the more I wish I had stayed with bowties. I am switching from a 318 to 360, using the same 904 tranny. I have the 360 flex plate and the harmonic balancer. Since the engine is not pulled yet, I have no...

Thanks for the info. I just missed the pan on the Ebay auction. Sold! Any idea about the externally balanced aspects of the 360? I have the original 360 harmonic balancer, but I am wondering if the flex plate and converter from the 318 will work on the 360? Thanks,

Can anyone tell me what oil pan I should use in this changeover? I am going with a 78 360LA and removing the 318. Will the 318 pan work on the 360 and clear the steering drag link? Thanks in advance

Great Information from you guys. I know a bunch more than I did earlier. Was there a difference between 318 and 360 heads during these years? Thanks,

Having been a bow tie guy for the past 20 years, and now with a Mopar to build, I have a couple questions. I bought a 360 engine from a Dodge Magnum to rebuild. I keep hearing about "Magnum" heads. Do these heads come from an engine in a Magnum car or is there a catagory of heads identified...

Are the KB pistons you have for sale? I couldn't quite understand your message on these. Are these Hyperutectic or Forged? Thanks.

Many Thanks. I have a 72 Dart Swinger 318 that runs very nice, but want a little more street performance. The 318 has been bumped up a little with Hooker Headers, Edelbrock performer intake and cam, and 650 double pumper. It runs well, and is in very good condition, having been rebuilt, but I...

Thanks for all the information. I will check the numbers but I am sure the heads are basic stuff. I am going to have them rebuilt anyway, so everything will be fresh. Thanks

I have purchased a 78 Dodge Magnum 360 motor and need to have information on the heads. Can anybody tell me what this motor might have and what options are for better flow? Also, what lift cam can you get by with using stock springs? This motor is not installed, and I am getting ready to...

I think my 3.91 would be worth quite a bit more than the one legged 3.23 so what kind of trade would you have in mind? Where are you located? Thanks,
