This apears to be quite a deal for $3600. I know it is not much more then a stock (cast) crank stroker w/ magnum heads, but this is the deal the old 360 crate motors use to be... (only you do not get the roller cam)...

What do you all think...?

I might need a new motor for the nats and this might just fit the bill...

Actually there are quite a few differences between these and the MOPAR Crate Motors.

Roller Cam (As Mentioned)
Use of a Mechnical Fuel Pump if you want, since the Mopar Magnum Motor has an ecentric on the cam.
Correct Timing change cover to use the Mechnical Fuel Pump.
All Mopar Crate Magnums now are supplied with the Big Valve Magnum R/T Heads vice the older magnum heads. The R/T Heads are one of the best flowing Heads out of the BOX including the W2's. There is a $1500 difference but then again I equate that to the roller cam and better Head combination. The Mopar Magnum Crates are assembled by Cummins. I have delt with 5 of these now and have not had any issue with them, even when on the dyno, the 360/390 produced 414 HP and the 402/435 (now the 406/435) produced 447HP.

As far as installing, if your replaceing a 340/360 it is a bolt in. 273/318 just minor modifications to the motor mounts.
