Everything just went sideways, upside-down, and generally "all jpar-ed up!"
Kind of two steps forward and one step back?
Remember this build is a 360 of very unknown condition. Guy bought a dart with the non-running 360 and pulled it out. Put it on Craigslist for $50 to get it out of his face to start his hemi build. (Nothing vested in moter, just wanted the dart)
SOOOO- Yesterday morning I'm thinking tonight I'll pull the trigger on the re ring kit and last night I did. Soooo, I'm looking at mopar parts on Craigslist yesterday morning before work and see a 318 long block for sale. Ad go's on to talk about the previous rebuild 10 plus years ago- .020 over ect.ect.ect. plus u tube video running the day before. Just bought blueprint stroker - need it gone.
Soooo, I bought it and cancelled the rering kit for now.
he tossed in a few goodies transmission wise...
what to do ???? Change thread???? I did pay $50 from Craigslist for 318 ????
Both have there unknowns. 318 needs a lot more examining, not sure of the year yet, heads, cam ect.. but could/should run fine as is. Motor had sentimental value. I believe he has had the car (66 Barracuda) for over 20 years. Nice guy doesn't live close, but going to let me help him put his new motor in Sunday.
