Thoughts on swapping a slant 6 with a 383

Here's the rub . motor mounts , center link , transmission , rear axle , radiator , drive shaft , throttle linkage , k d linkage , you don't have to delete the heater just the fan , shift linkage . Just for starters . The difference between a stock 383 and an upgraded one , price wise, is negative . Oh yeah, oil pan swap . Manifolds are pricey . C-body manifolds are cheaper but the left side dumps right in the steering . Try-Y is a good compromise . Go for it .

All that makes the machining of your 360 look really good and you'll have a new motor built (hopefully) properly. So what does your block need? I like B/RB motors but a nice 360 it just as fun without the weight.
