Rebuilding my 360
So as some of you know my 360 committed suicide.... (ok I was sent the wrong bearings and just assumed they were right, big mistake) Anyway I am starting to think about how I am going to rebuild my 360. This is the 360 that is currently for my swinger but when I go 440 in the swinger I am planning on swapping it in the aspen as a motor to fill the hole and make the aspen drivable.
So I am learning my lesson, investigating in some plasta gauge and doing this baby up right.
Here is what I am thinking:
1971 360 std bore
stock flat top pistons and rods
hv oil pump
ring gaps checked and minimized
entire rotating assembly balanced
block and heads decked to achieve 9.5:1-10:1 comp
284 284 480 480 comp cam degreed
'71 J heads that have been rebuilt to '70 spec with 2.02 and 1.88s maybe a little bowl work done
eddy airgap
650 4150 dp or should I step up to a 750?
msd pro billet dist with my 6al box and 8.8 wires
reverse flow water pump and housing ect so I can do a magnum serpentine set up with a nipodenso alt
All things in green are parts I already have
So what do you guys think? Does this sound like a sound street-able combo? Any other recommendations?
I am trying to keep the cost down so I don't really want to be buying things other then the necessary machine work and gaskets ect... But I an certainly open to ideas.
Thanks
