Back to the drawing board... stock low dollar 360

I hope I'm not making it sound like I think you should throw big money at it or anything like that. But a little bit is usually needed for Hot Rodding.

LOL..... never said I wouldn't have to spend money. In fact, I may end up spending a few more than planned. But this will NOT turn into a 2000 dollar motor - and that's a fact!

. Just saying this thread here is about all the inexpensive small things that can be done to a CHEAP engine to go faster and make more smiles. I equate $ and time spent as to what I have in the end and IF I get pleasure out of it.
Sure it was way easier back in the 70's, 80's to go to the local boneyard and get a good running engine complete for cheap. CHEAP. EASY! Try finding a yard with anything older than 2000!!
BUT you are right, put in some decent gears and be pretty quick (less you got stock friggin slant!)

This thread/build is different than my low dollar-budget build 318 thread. That was done to help newbies. Give them some ideas. I didn't do it for me. I wanted to show them that 500 bucks and a 318 2bbl can play too :) I limited myself to a budget.
However, this thread is for me. This is what I want to do. I have no budget limitations, although I want to spend the least amount possible (like everyone else … LOL :D ) Goal one has been met, 13.9's. Now, I want 12.9's by next year at this time. :) I'll post what works, and what didn't work.
