Hi Everyone, I am on a information quest now concerning a 360 build, Here is an example of what one reputable mopar engine builder has quoted:
I just quoted a 360 just like what your looking for. Basically a complete engine intake to oil pan. Projected power is 375-400hp and 400+tq. Slight lope at idle, but not that much. A real good solid 360 that will perform for years and years.
This engine package is $5000 and is our most basic engine build we have.
So I asked him: Is it possible to have you email a more detailed description of exactly what you would be using for the build, ie; LA or magmun block.. overbore, pistons, cam, intake, etc
He replied:
This will be a LA 360, unless you want a magnum 360. Stock crank, after market rods/pistons, stock 360 heads with new valves/port work, hydrauilc flat cam with 220/230 duration .475" lift, all new valvetrain(non-roller), Dual plane intake, stock type oil pump/pan new, painted any color you like, crome valave covers, high flow water pump. This will be around 10 to 1 compression and run on pump gas 91-93 octane.
You do have options. If you want roller rockers, after market heads, roller cam, carb, ignition system, dyno tune, ect. Just ask and I will let you know how much the upgrade is.
Time to build is generally in the 6-8weeks range. We would require a deposit before starting, the rest due when ready to ship. Deposit depends on the final price if there are any options added. As a rule the deposit is 75% of the final cost. The quote is good for 30 days.
so I asked: would there be a cost difference in the LA verses the Magnum block? also what would if any would the overbore be? What kind of Aftermarket pistons/rods,cam? and how much for Electronic Ignition Dist, carb & Dyno tune?
Comments?? suggestions??? what questions am I missing?? etc Thanks, John
