10 sec. 318?

Hmm, sounds like a good place to start. I'll have to scout around and see what I come up with. Did you end up having to change motor mounts or anything? Admittedly the car I have has some rather "curious" mounts consisting of angle iron and square tubing to get the mounts where they need to be for the 318. I'm pretty sure they never changed the K frame from the /6, but I will definitely change the mounts when I swap the engine if not the whole K frame. I wouldn't trust my welds for much, especially not a high power engine twisting on them.

If you have a decent welder you do anything, you'll need a 360 mount for the DS for an A body, the pass side 318 mount should work, you'll need an oil pan for a 360, you'll find this swap is relatively simple, these magnum engines are great, even with there stock short blocks, i'm running RHS heads, i won't be changing much on mine, it runs too good @ 12.5s through the exhaust, the only thing i might do down the road is put 100 shot to it IF the tires will hold, should be good for a 7.5 pass, if not better, i've got around 5500.00 in my car (including the car), so i'm more then happy with it, i have around 18-2000.00 in the engine.
