A 360 Magnum engine from Mopar Performance that had about 800 miles on it when it was yanked for abigger, badder engine. As some of you know, Mopar Perf has canceled the small block magnum engines under 400+hp and what remaining stock is going for big bucks. They will sell you a new one at $10k but probably not what your budget is able to handle. Have had this one last couple years, but have decided to drop in a big block and is now for sale. Been indoor stored and ready for a new home.

Most sell for $5800+
selling this one for $3800, that's still cheap
also have blue engine crate for for an extra $300 with the purchase.
also, carb is not included.
also has a fresh heavy duty 727 auto trans for an extra $500

Compression Ratio: 9.0:1
Block: Cast Iron
Crankshaft: Cast, 3.580"
Heads, Chamber Size: Cast Iron
Valves: 1.925" / 1.625"
Camshaft Lift: 0.501" / 0.513"
Dur. @ 0.050": 288 / 292

The Magnum 380 crate motor head is a swirl port design that has smaller combustion chambers and a higher compression ratio (nominal 9.0:1). Different intake and exhaust port sizing flows more air without modifications to the cylinder heads. Breathing is enhanced with 1.925" intake valves and 1.625" exhaust valves. Overall package of smaller valves and better ports flow more air. Next, we slide in our .501" / .513" lift, 288/292 degree duration hydraulic roller camshaft, add a 4BBL carbureted M1® single plane intake manifold (with bosses over each runner for future MPI). We add special valve springs and a double roller timing chain as well as an MPP electronic distributor. The distinctive Mopar cast valve covers with 10 screws are added to the package, with an oil pan (center sump) similar to the Commando engines. It is recommended you add your own 750 cfm Holley carburetor and headers to complete the package. Dyno testing with a 750 cfm carburetor and 17/8" headers show horsepower output to be 380+ at 5300 RPM. Torque output is 410+ lb/ft at 4400 RPM, with over 350 lb/ft available from 2000 to 5700 RPM.

also, if someone buys this engine, I also have a set of very nice 1968 340 manifolds I would include for an extra $400. I wanted to run these instead of headers as they would look nice and still flow good, while still giving good clearance for power steering and fast ratio pitman arms.
 
Man it is crazy what they are selling these engines for now that they are discontinued. My friend paid about 3,800.00 for the 380 HP back around mid to late 90's and it came with the blue shipping crate at no extra charge. Good luck selling it.
 
Thanks, yeah the prices are out the roof now.

I've decided to go 1/2 it's cost and list it for $2999 and see if that will help get it a new home. I'm trying to fund a new project purchase, so that's as low as I'll go.
