my first mopar, will i love it or hate it?

Oh! Almost forgot, get a MoPar engines book, a MoPar Chasiss book, how to rebuild and hot to hot rod your small block Chrysler and read on through them. Once you have these books, your practically unstoppable just being loaded up with knowledge and know how as well as what swaps and fits and why it won't work.

Go to Summit racing or Jegs or Mancini racing for books and parts!

Get these books!!!!!!
Then be ahead of the learning curve!!!!!

(Oh thank you Bomber! It seemed to make sense... Yea, there great little engines that can for sure, they just lack cubes! It isn't that they can't run and run hard and smoke a few unsuspecting people, but being down a bit of bore and stroke or 42 cubes in the 318-360 case, why go there? I'll do it for fun, but I'll set this guy up right like anybody else. Go bigger!)
