Yeah, a magnum build would be cool but $200 for the short block, I got just have to put heads on it and cash flow is tight at the moment!

I believe they are LA pistons because they have 4 eyebrow reliefs. I'll go check and take a pic! I pulled pistons to hone and clean cylinders. They had some rust from sitting in the guys garage for ever.

Thanks Bewy! You may be correct, I wasn’t sure about what cam it had in it so I took it to a machine shop friend of mine and he didn’t know what brand the cam was but he measured the lift and said it was slightly under what a standard LA cam was. Didn’t write the numbers down but he said it was...

Man that is really great info Professor Fate! That is a crazy overbore! This one was bored 40 over but sat a few years before I got it! Was rebuilt and never used. Had to hone some years of crust out of it but it cleaned up easy and had new pistons and cam, and a steel crank! Re-ringing it...

Thanks, so if so what heads can I put on it? Will LA style heads work or am I gonna have to use poly heads? I need to find some that are budget friendly but want to make sure I'm buying the right heads. Not looking for something radical, just want to make it go.

Sent some pictures!

Thanks! just sent them from my phone and it looks like it worked

Yes but for some reason when I send them they never get to the recipients! I have a newer I phone. Never had these issues with my android phone!

I'm thinking Poly 318 block as well. If so is there heads besides poly, like LA engine heads that will work?

Thanks! I'm not the most computer savvy guy! I got some pics but I'm having trouble getting them from my phone to my computer! The numbers I posted earlier are the only numbers on the block and they are on the front. No numbers what so ever on the sides of the block. There is an A2 on the front...

Hello, got an engine short block, supposed to be a 318. Did some searches but didn't really find the answer. Hope maybe someone can help? On the front passenger side of the block it has the numbers 1737929. Found someone saying that this number is associated with several early Mopar small...

Great thanks!

Wow thanks for the link to manuals! That will definitely help! I was browsing them all ready! is there a shop manual for the 71 dart by chance? I downloaded the 70 dart manual and I guess that's close. Was there big changes from 70 to 71?

Thanks Uncle Bob, that's good to know when I go back to putting it in! Sounds simple and I kinda assumed it should be, but you know the saying about assuming! lol It's great having people who are or have been in the trenches to go to and get advice! This site is great and I appreciate all the...

Yes that's a good suggestion! I may do that before I put it back up! Hopefully it's all good! On another subject, I pulled the torsion bars and they came out fine! I have identified them right and left. I counted the pivot bolt turns on taking them out, but have been reading about installing...

Yes indeed! Had a pucker factor moment there for sure!

Yes I had all four corners on 6 ton stands before I removed it! I also noticed it when bumping in to it. lol That made me a bit worried! I bought the removal tool for them guess I can use that if need be to install too! Will let you know.

Well stupidly I didn't see that there was more to the thread when I posted my first reply! Great news then! Glad to see it all worked out! That's reassuring! I will be putting my k in without engine or trans in place. Hopefully I will have no issues! But am a little worried now! Just waiting on...

Wow! This is good info for what I'm doing right now! I have a 71 Demon that had no engine or trans in it when I bought it! Got an engine and trans to go in it but was doing the same thing! I dropped the k member to blast and paint both it and the engine compartment and and inner fenders. So I...

Semper Fi brother! I retired in 2003! Love the Demon! Looks great! If mine looks half as good when I'm done I'd be happy! Nice car! Thanks for the advice! I will take my time but in a bit of a hurry up to get it registered! Then will do a little more of a deep dive! I'm already seeing the value...

Man that is a project! I'm using mine as a shelf at the moment! Going to clean up the garage and get to it today! May be able to take some pics after! I don't have as big a challenge as you do. I had no hood or front fenders when I started. That along with the K frame being swapped said front...

Will do when I get a chance!

No pics yet! Not much to look at now but I'll put some up when I take a few! My goal for now is to get it mechanically sound to get it through inspection before the emission Nazis's get in to full blitzkrieg mode! lol No offense intended to any Nazis's out there!

Not at this time! Just getting started! lol but I will keep you in mind should I have a change of heart!

Thanks! Good to hear! I believe it is within those years?

Hello all! I have a 71 Demon and am trying to get it together! It was a 6 cylinder car originally and the guy put a small block K member in it! It did not have an engine or transmission in it when I bought it! I am rebuilding an old 318 engine that I had in the garage and plan to put it in the...
