So I have a nice 360 in my 74 Dart sport...am trying to figure out what I have. It has Magnum heads and a bunch of nice parts on it...Demon Carb, MP Intake.

The casting number is this

53020008AB - 360

I have looked on the internet and cannot find any reference to this casting number.....other than an ad for a 2009 Dodge pickup for sale in New Zealand.

Any help on this guys?

Thanks!

Could be a 6 and my crappy eyes saw an 8...I will recheck.

Is there anything better about these engines than the LA engines or is it all in the build....I have no idea what pistons, cam etc are in it other than it runs hard and has a roller cam.

Thanks!
 
Would there be a stamping on it someplace if it were a performance crate engine? There are some weird dot stampings on the block just below the head on the drivers side...where normal stampings would be...but they are numbers made up by a bunch of small dots...have yet to be able to read these.
 
OK...a bit blurry but here is what the stamped numbers look like....made up of little dots...is that normal?

Top photo is Block....Bottom is Head.
