Demon Dave, I call your bluff. I'm asking how..if you take intoconsideration you can do a /6 to small block swap for this much
Good running 360 for $500 auto Tranny for $200 schumacker Motor mounts for $180 $200 for nickel and dime stuff ( oil, gaskets, spark plugs, etc etc) $200 for exhaust
total of $1280. You can't do all that with a big block....trust me. Look at my thread if you want.
well, i just got done puting a 360 into a slant six 74 duster. I did not put a 500 dollar junkyard 360 into it, i wouldnt waste my time. i built a nice powerful 360 with plenty of go fast goodies. But as far as everything else goes.....
300 for aluminum radiator(slant six has smaller radiator)
180 for conversion mounts
100 for aluminum bellhousing
400 for centerforce clutch kit
kept the 3 speed manual trans wich will break soon so figure 500 for rebuilt abody trans
250 headers
still have 7.25 rear but that will go soon so figure 900 for built 8.75 rear with 391 gears
250 upgrade to disks (9 inch drums wont stop a rev happy small block)
120 new shock
500 misc
you can do the math, this is not including the cost of the engine wich is well over the 3k mark
