parts list for swap ?

I don't mind running an electric fuel pump they're cheap. Cheap enough to carry an extra one. I've used them in the past and I've only had one go bad on me and all the years. I don't want to go through removing the cam and all that. I'd really like to get the truck back into service as quick as I can without killing myself. I don't want to make it into a long strung out project. I was hoping to do this to save time and money since I have the motor. At this point I would think about just reconditioning the 318 that I have for all the trouble I'd have to go through to get that 318 out of the Durango and then leaving that vehicle as a dead dog in my yard.( remember I'm in the city) and all along here I have not only have the duster scattered in pieces now this truck scattered in pieces and now I'm thinking about scattering the Durango in pieces? Oh boy!

J par..... you tore your Duster apart like a model kit. There is really no more work putting a 318 mag where the LA 318 was than if you went to an LA 360. Same everything, and if you want to take a "sure way", get a 360 truck pan and pickup tube, and put them on your mag with the LA front. While the intake and timing cover is off, throw a cam with a snout in there and put it back together using the LA front. DONE! READY to RUN! PRESTO..... lol

P.S. - you will get a power increase. Best of all, you won't need to add extra Zinc :D
