I'm looking at an 86 ramcharger 2 wheel drive with a 360 auto trans, could I put engine and trans in a 74 duster (I'll have to change oil pan) just wondering if that year engine is ok?
Thanks
 
It will work perfect! The 727 will require a shorter drive shaft assuming you have the 904. Also, the exhaust manifolds on the 360 will need to be replaced with A-body manifolds or headers. Last, if your duster is a slant six, you'll need the v8 conversion mounts and radiator.
 
I did this exact swap into my brothers duster, 74 also. The 360 engine out of the R/C had 116000 on it. Ran surprisingly well considering how loose it was, how loose was it? I ran no fan whatsoever.
