That is a very good point. Thanks if the 360 pans out I will leave the stock in I'm not even gonna worry about it lol

I did some math and I think you are dead on. Just for curiosity sake I looked up a roller lunati cam. 306$ flat tappet is about 250 for the kit so that only leaves 50 bucks for pushrods. Thanks for bringing that up.

How bringing another rundown old truck with another rundown motor into the equation with all your money is a difficult one for me to understand but I assume there's a lot of parts there you can sell or something?
I have a feeling years from now when you look back you would wish to just bought the Magnum and the manifold and started cleaning and assembling. Don't get me wrong I have a badass stroked dual-quad fire breathing crazy la motor, but if I had to do it all over again would I put those dual quads on a junkyard Magnum 360? You bet your *** I would have. I'd love to buy a bunch of stuff for Magnum and just keep blowing up $350 Motors every other season LOL instead of risking breaking the 6K one I have now.

Yea I understand what you are saying. But if I do a compression test and its had good results I could pull the engine and transmission and sell the body or part it out and get probably 250-300 back. So if I trade the four wheeler I will have no cash in it. And possibly get 200 to 300 cash back just from parting out the body. if the block is not wore out I can just continue where I left off. New bearings re ring new valves in my 302 heads and have a decent motor. Now if I go look at it and the compression sucks then the deal is off and I will pass on it.
Now that I found this 360 I may pass anyway tho. If the 360 has good compression.
