Before I make a mistake please help new mopar fan!!

The only other sticky part to a B motor is the radiator. Your gonna need a good one to cool it off and a clutch fan to boot.

Manual steering is a + for fitment. Schumacher(?) headers are easy to install and not much more.

383 with closed chamber heads and a 484/284 or maybe a comp 268 xtreme energy would be a spicey low cost deal too.400 motors run really good this way too but have less compression.

Magnum motors can be had for 450-650 in boneyards 92-00 would work. You would have to run an electric pump though.
