Thanks for all of the great comments. I've copied them off for when we pull the engine down. I just found a guy local here in Yuma that races on the weekends and builds engines to support his racing. He knows Mopar engines and is interested in rebuilding mine for me. Engine builders are getting hard to find, many people just buy a crate engine and don't want to mess with the old iron. Thanks again for the comments.

I have the engine but don't yet know the condition of the engine. My plan is to put it in a Dodge D-200 pickup that now has a 383.
If the valves seats are not hardened is it necessary for this engine?
Due to the age of the engine if it is rebuildable I will change the cam and lifters. Any suggestions for a cam considering it is going in a pickjup? My gearing puts me at about 3,000 rpm at 75.
Thanks
