Hypothetical 360 magnum build
I haven't opened that link yet but to address the post 2 above the one with the link
NO I'm not changing my mind.
The whole idea all along was to see how feasible it would be to build an engine starting with what I have on hand. And I haven't gained or lost anything since I started this thread.
I know about the computer on these, I had my fits a few years ago with the computer on the Durango I currently have. I sent it's original in for repairs, it didn't work out, I went to a boneyard and got one off an identical Durango, and it would start/quit like a carbureted car with a bad ballast resistor.
So I sent the junkyard computer in and the computer repair place reprogrammed that one to be plug n play. I won't forget that one. Everything is as built, stock on my current Durango, except for the fact that I have unmodified EQ heads on a stone stock short block, and 1.7 roller rockers.
I see either posts have. Been put in since I started this reply so I quoted THAT to as a place holder to show what I meant "2 above WHAT post".
But I came asking before I started swinging wrenches, because I figured I'd run into somebody who had at least attempted what I am thinking about.
The particular Durango that I was looking at to put this prospective build into ,wasn't as advertised So I didn't get it /but I'm still looking for another one to replace our current one.
Our current Durango is over 300 k so I'm scoping out it's replacement while things are still good with this one, I've talked about current one before
Maybe that's where the confusion comes in, where you're thinking i'm "changing my mind".
I know that one well as we've had it for 10+ years, I'm wanting to improve on the next one based on how this one acts.
I'm just surprised how many replies om getting to "just build it stock".
