Looking at this 360 on Craigslist - Questions

77 is a bad year core.

Find a 1973, 1974.....or skip the crap and go to 87,88,89,90,91.

The crap being....high mileage, smogged down, never tuned up RV/Truck engines.

Find a wrecked Ramcharger 4x4.
Find a Wrecked D250.
Find a Low Mileage 73/74/75 Rv.

Whatever you do....dont spend more than $150.00 for a core 360.......

























unless it has tons of parts you'll need/use/sell/trade later!!!!


A center sump 360 oil pan is cheap....$59.00
a Nuetral Balance flex plate.....$90

Stroker Setup is pricey depending on the options.....

SO what we are really wondering about the longevity of is a STD 4.00" bore 360 block with main caps....no cam, heads, timing cover, crankshaft?

72-75 block.....or 89-91 block is all I would recommend.
