Thanks for all the input. I'm way over in Sweden, anyone know where I could order one?

I have a 360 that is going into a 1970 Duster with Hooker Competition headers. The Oil filter clears the header as shown in the picture. I plan to go with a shorter filter than the one in the picture. Do I by some other reason need to use a 90 degree oil filter adapter? I would rather not use it...

Thank you!

I cant seem to find it here on FABO or by googling. I did find info on the water pump bolts. But are there any of the lower timing cover bolts that go into water or oil and need to be sealed?

I actually already run an external cooler, I had the same converter with my previous enginge. I hope I can stay with the 3.55's, I like that gearing.

Thank you for that information! Very nice to hear from someone with the exact same set up. I have a 10" 3000 stall Turbo Action converter and I have 3.55 gearing, I also have a set of 3.73 gearing on the shelf.

My vote goes to the 360 since you have more plans further down the line.

Both ways sound great! I really want to ad either an H or X pipe. Mine just sounds too loud as it is now with the Super 44's. I regret buying them to be honest. Great sounding car you got!

Thank you guys for the help. I feel I have a much better grasp on this now.

Another question. Will the shop need my old pistons to be able to make all calculations?

I see, thanks for clearing that up.

After talking to some friends I'm a bit confused about what I need to do to get my engine balanced and correct. I am putting together a 360. My plan is to use the stock crank, rods and damper. The flexplate I will be using is the B&M Flexplates 10236. I have bought Speed Pro Hypereutectic...

Thanks again for the links and info guys. I will look at all the options you posted.

Thank you.

Thanks. Hmm, I'm not sure I want to take the chance. What would and affordable upgrade be? I'm shooting for around 400 hp in this build.

I was also under the impression that the stock Valvetrain could be used with the Edelbrock RPM heads. I just bought a set and I will be running the xe268H cam.

I see it now too. The picture after is on the same side of the bore but taken with a flash. I have gone over this block and have not seen or felt anything out of order. But hey, I cant swear I did not miss this. I hope it's not a crack I have missed! I will take a real close look at that...

Hi. Could you save and then post up the picture where you see it? Maybe even draw a circle or an arrow? I can't find it in the photos. If I have all the numbers right for the compression calculator, with the heads, speedpro pistons and thin mr gasket It will be 10.29

Change of plans! I ordered a set of Edelbrock RPM heads :) A lot of other things has started to come in recently too. Still waiting for the heads though. I followed RustyRatRod's cam bearing install thread. Thanks Rusty! Everything lined up nicely, but of course I f...d up on the last bearing...

Are you shure of this? Have you used and if so what do you think of them?

Did they kill the low end?

Yes, I saw that too. It was the price tag that made me interested. I have a set of iron heads that I spent like 50 hours on porting them (I'm a beginner). They need new guides and cutting the seats. I'm not sure if I should spend the money on them. I'm a bit scared I ruined them with my portjob...

Are these an option? Mopar Chrysler SB 318 360 170cc 65cc Hydr-FT Complete Aluminum Cylinder Heads They are SpeedPros. I have been looking at these myself. Does anyone know if they will work with stock valvetrain (hydralic non adjustable rockers)?

Before And after I've never honed before, it was fun! Also got a lot of parts from the US yesterday. Next up is more cleaning and some more cleaning...

Looking really good!

I like this idea, thanks! I'm very curious, do you have a picture of this tool. I have an old cam I could use for this! I was thinking about using a treaded rod and different size washers for each journal. I was also thinking maybe I could use a socket to install the cam bearing shell onto. But...

Putting together my 360 I would like to do as much as possible myself. Why? I would learn from it and also maybe get some satisfaction out from knowing that I did it myself. I have never installed cam bearings, but I think I could do it. Most of my friends have had the shop do this for them. No...

So now I'm waiting for some tools and parts to arrive. The engine will go together something like this: Stock crank, rods & bore (honed by me) All new bearings & oil pump Ported (by me) 3769974 heads - Mr. Gasket 1121G Speed Pro H116CP pistons Xe268H and matching springs, new lifters, chain and...

Spent a good amount of time today calibrating the bore gauge and then measure and measure again and finally a triple check. I felt like I got a good hang of using the tools. I did not use a stress plate. I measured each bore in 6 positions (took forever). The biggest number on taper was .0023...

Yes :) I will try and get some more work done tomorrow.
