I did a mild 360 for $2600, not stroked.

But what about zink additives?!?!?!?!?! :bootysha::snakeman:

You should have asked him if they were ever planning on making an intake that all the holes line up right so you can actually bolt it to your engine.:angry7:

It is a non-issue because you can't get a new Weiand that actually fits right out of the box! The last one I got half the bolt holes were 1/4" off and the casting was so bad that it cut the **** out of my finger.

Are they chrome covers?If they are you need to scuff the gasket area with some 80 grit sand paper. I always use gasket sealer on the valve cover side of the gasket.

A few years ago I ordered a new Weiand Stelth for a street 360 I was building. I could only get 3 of the bolts started, all the rest of the bolt holes were off some by 1/4". The casting was so rough that I also cut my finger on it. Sent it back to Summit in exchange for an Eddy performer.

I clean it the best I can and try to take it down to bare metal with a wire wheel on a drill if I don't get it hot tanked , put it all together and sealed up with the parts that will be painted engine color (block, heads, pan, valve covers, ect), chase the moisture out of it with a torch then...

Drill, tap, heli-coil, stud, DONE!

I may end up trading my 53 for a 67 wagon with a poly 318 and 727... Yeah I know the wheels need to be changed... http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/cto/1649441362.html I was wondering will a 360 bolt up to the poly 727, what about the converter?

I bought a one piece from summit for my 360 for around 30 bucks.

I got mine at the local parts store for around 30 bucks. Just be sure to bring in your old one to compare. They made a long shaft and a short shaft clutch.

:-D:snakeman:

Can you post some pics of the area for us? Sounds like you might want to line up a 90* oil filter adapter before you do the job. That or use a short WIX filter so you can get more clearance in there.

I have heard that all the casting bumps and small (non structural) ridges on a motor actually help in cooling, that makes perfect sence to me but if I were to smooth out the block and heads of a 40 over 360 how much difference in cooling would you think that would make on a daily driver? With a...

I ran a short WIX filter for years on my daily driver with a 360 and never had any problems, run the biggest filter you can fit but please DO NOT USE A FRAM OIL FILTER THEY ARE ****!

I haven't gotten that far yet. I don't even have a car to put this motor in so I am not putting a lot of time into this motor right now, I'm just playing around with it as I go. I'm rebuilding a 360, a slant six and a 350 chevy all at the same time so my focus isn't just on the 360 right now.

I installed a CAT one in a 360 that I'm re-rebuilding and the only mods I had to do was grind down 2 spots on the inside of the timing cover then drill and tap a hole in the block. No big deal at all.

What gaskets did you use? I still have to find one... http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=82928

Are you planning on new rings and bearings as well or just cam and chain? Looking at the pic are you sure it wasn't 191,000 miles? It's pretty messy in there. I would also add a new oil pump and pick up to the job because your pan is going to be packed full of crud if the heads look like that...

You say original 318, how many miles are on it and has anything been replaced or can you tell if some gaskets (timing cover gasket) look newer than any others?

Go get one of those telescoping magnets on a stick from the parts store. If you are going to use a flathead screwdriver you will need to use 2 of them and it is a *****.

F Demon carbs and F Barry Grant! Worst pile of crap carb I ever had. Also make sure you take the carb apart and check it for sand before you use it. BG also has total **** for customer service and quality control. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=77458 Go with an...

Subscribed!!! I am still trying to find out all the particulars with bolting a 273 intake onto a mid 70's 360. If all I have to do is ream out some bolt holes that will be no problem. No one seems to have a 100% clear answer so far.

Ebay for 34 bucks.

At TDC your rotor should be facing towards the #1 cylinder and with the cap on should be lined up with the #1 plug terminal not straight forward. Sounds like your distributer drive gear is off a tooth. This is WRONG This is RIGHT (no the valvecovers are not for sale so no one PM me...

If you want to save some money and still get a great cam all you have to do is figure out the specs of a cam you want and give them to either your local cam house or these guys http://www.deltacam.com/ I have used them for a ton of engines and have never been let down by their information, parts...

X2 If your dipstick blows or sucks (pervert, get your mind out of the gutter) air then you have a PCV issue.

Just remember if you do it that way you will have to cap off the tail shaft of the tranny or you will have a nice big red mess and you will defiantly want to get a load leveler and put the car up on jackstands if you are pulling them as one unit. Oh and watch your tranny cooler lines when you...

You can leave the radiator in just pull the fan, pulley, shroud and place a piece of plywood across the front or the radiator, the lift plate will work fine but a load leveler is the best thing to have, unhook exhaust from the manifolds, pull distributer, unhook hoses/electrical, unbolt the...

LOL, so you bought the same thing at a different store LOL How is it working so far?
