Rebuilding A Small Block





The other alternative is to buy a Mopar 360 crate engine with the install 
kit for $3500 and drop it in,

It's not that easy. I'm going this route on mine. It already had a 360.  
Problem one the accessories don't line up with the brackets. The thermostat 
housing is in the center which means you probably lose your a/c and then 
you'll have to fab up some brackets or use some non-Imperial brackets. 
Obviously you lose the air pump. It's also taller than stock, which may or 
may not be a problem. On the bright side, the 300 hp motor is only about 
$3000. Supposedly they have an offset thermostat manifold which is coming 
out, but I don't know when.
