349 CI on the cheap

We never had time to dyno the motor. The owner was in a hurry and wouldn't take an extra day to dyno it. As far as weight of the car I would guess some where around 3600 #s. I was just asking about to dyno to see if this motor would even come close to making the power your thinking it might make. I haven't personaly messed with mopars in a few years but I don't ever recall 360s being hard to find, I understand 318s are everywhere. I always had a hard time finding 340 blocks. There is just no way I would turn a stock 360 crank down to 318 mains. As far as stock mopar a motor heads go I wouldn't waste the time doing a valve job on them if i was wanting any kind of decent power. Cylinder head technology has come a long way in the last 10 years or so and prices have come down to not use new heads. I just couldn't justify building a smaller, weaker, less power more expensive motor.
To each is their own.
i am planning to build this engine,for a couple reasons.number one,i dont dont have the cash most of you guys seem to have.i can build this engine a little less radical and be stronger than most 360s around here.number 2,people are starting to think 360s are worth 340 money,ive had 318s given to me.also,you must have been into chevys for a while,because stock mopar heads can be very efficient performance heads,IF the right work is done to them,and they are of the right valve size for the engine you put them on.too big a valve will slow the aircharge down too much for a street application.you might get by with the high dollar heads on the drag strip were the cams are huge,and the stall is obove 4500,with really steep gears.i believe the 349 will better performance engine for the money than a 340,because the you can suptract the golden price tag of the block,right off the top.the torque will be better,with the right cam.i guess we could argue about it forever,we will see,time slips dont lie!
