Best Year for Mopar 360 LA Engines

Thanks everyone,

I'm looking at putting a 360 into a 72' Duster that currently has a slant six. I'm not planning on racing it, I just want to have a nice get-up-and-go street car. I'm not a stickler on keeping the car all original, so going with a 360 in a 72' isn't going to upset me; however, I know it will probably bother some of you guys who like to KEEP IT REAL.

Any tips on what I should expect to pay for a stock rebuilt 360 long block that comes with cylinder heads attached and valve train installed (valve covers, timing cover, intake manifold and oil pan not included)?

Here's a little more detail: This long block has new valves, valve springs, valve keepers, push rods, rocker arms, fulcrums, lifters, camshaft, timing chain (belt), timing gears, valve guides (diamond honed), three angle seats, cam, rod and main bearings, pistons, piston rings, rod bushings, gaskets and oil pump. Cylinder block, cylinder heads, crankshaft and connecting rods are cleaned and shot peened and magnafluxed for cracks. All bolt holes are tapped. Cylinder block is bored to each piston and diamond honed to 18RMS finish. All oil galleys are hand brushed with white cleaning brushes and cylinders are hand cleaned with cleaning solution and white towels. Cylinder heads have each valve guide diamond honed, seats are three angle. After assembly, heads are vacuum checked for valve seating. Crankshaft is ground and polished to 12RMS. Each oil galley is hand brushed with a white cleaning brush. All connecting rods are honed.

Cheers,
