Well, I got tired of waiting for help from family members, friends, etc so I'm just gonna do it myself. I've done it before, but the location right now sucks. I gotta drag my engine on the stand uphil on broken concrete, put plywood under the car, and try to drop it in with the bigger hooker headers that I bought. Yes, I'm finally putting my Dart back together! And I'm babysitting 3 kids. Today should be interesting! BTW, I just got another 360 and a new cab for my truck! I just need the floors. Anyway, the 360 is an 87 or 88, its not roller, but does it have the better heads? I didn't take it apart yet, I was told it runs but I need to free up my stand first. Came with a factory 4bbl and everything...for less than you would pay for the intake itself. Good deal. Have a good one everyone!

Dustin Good luck getting dart together and becarefull. Tough working by yourself and under less than ideal conditions.

lol.. i know how ya feel.. i do mine in a stone driveway.. i put the motor on the hoist and push the car under it...
 
Hahaha thats exactly what I did! I got it in...those bigger 1 3/4 headers were kind of a pain. I don't have pics yet, but I will this weekend. it looks good! Even had my 9 year old son AND my fiance' helping me!
 
It sure is nice to have help from loved one's that care enough to jump in and help.:happy10:
But some times :clock:I am better off by myself on things other then what you had to do, Congrat's, I would be proud to :cheers:
 
Did you put it in with the headers on? I ask because I'm gonna put my engine back in next month and I have Hooker's also.
 
I sort of laid the headers down in, and slowly took turns moving the engine in and TRYING to keep the headers in place. They were a pain! Way worse than any 1 5/8 headers I've done. I've yet to do anything else, so I havent even had the chance to get any pics.
