360-383 A-debate...max builds need not apply.

If I was retired, instead of just tired, and had an extra sum of funds, I'd do a test like that. That'd be fun! And I'd use our DT ('80 D150) as the machine to move! A lot of times a guy can buy a 383 2bbl for 150- 200 bucks as they are not highly sought after.

a B for under $600? NFW, Unattainable at that price around here....heck a 361 gets that much (short block only.... $300). Only 383 on craigs in SoCal is a 67 single snorkle $1500 pan to air cleaner, and it has center dump logs so its no Roadrunner motor.

340 Mopar Engine NEW!!! - $5,000 (Hesperia)
Mopar 360 Engine - $500 (Lake Forest)
360 MOPAR motor, broken down - $225
1973 dodge cylinder heads 340/360 cu in rebuilt - $650

not much more locally. I rolled on a 68 383 for $600 4 years ago and the guy blew me off with higher offers.
