ok after months of deciding, being lazy and not wanting to work on it due to being cold, its time for me to start to finish my project. i bought a shortblock a few months back and just now getting to it. right now i just want a basic engine, nothing really fancy, i dont even think i need to bore it right now, just hone. i just have 3 major questions right now.
i have a 73 360 block, casting # 3418640-2 with an x. now what does the X on the crank mean? under or oversize?
also it has the heads 4027596, and its had port work done, are these good heads?
i dont think i will have alot of hood clearance, so what is a good single plane intake thats low but still delivers good power?
the rest of the motor is still up in the air, it depends on what kind of deals i can get, and what kind of room i have under the hood after i mount my motor (waiting on rear sump oilpump to do that)
ill post photos after i get my mounts done.
