    no sense it building an engine you don't really want to end up with though, open the 360 up, check bearings, rings and the important stuff have the heads checked and button it back up and run it like that if all looks well

    opinions thoughts ideas

    is the 360 a good running engine? did you hear it run? if so drop it in and run it, buy the 340 and save it until you have abit more of a budget to build it (sit in in the corner) that way you have the 340 to build and still can drive the car with the 360

    Hellcat Engine Swap

    if you have new vehicle replacement its an automatic write off after a certain cost to fix; every insurance company offers this coverage and its almost stupid not to have it, this car was wrote off because of that I'm sure as its not even hit that hard

    Hellcat Engine Swap

    What engine did I just find?

    okay, sometimes detectives cars only got a 318-2 or sometimes city police only got a /6 engine, there is no rhythm nor reason why anything was done at that point in time

    How was it in the 60s-80s?

    I had the same impressions that a carburated 70's vehicle or older couldn't be a good nightly cruiser (after work on good evenings) but I have two 70's dodge's and with some new parts and a good carburetor they get 20 MPG and idle/work nearly as good as EFI now I'm not saying I don't like EFI...

    Oil life?? Time vs. mileage ....

    with fuel injection and very precise fuel metering oil change intervals have been bumped up quite abit, but a carburetor that has little tuning I would use the 3000 Mile rule as far as time goes change it every year, oil that sits in the car for storage will accumulate moisture and should be...
