Does a Dodge truck 360 engine have flat tappet lifters or roller lifters?
It'll need an oil change soon and I'm about out of the good oil from a couple years ago, so I need to figure which oil it can use. I'm sure it can use whatever I buy that is good for the flat tappet cams of the rest of my vehicles that are '76 and older.

Thanks, I THOUGHT it did, but it's been too long since I read it on Moparts.
Thankyou.

Starting in about 1988 ('87 for cars) all vehicles with V-8's got the roller lifters.
So to answer your question, yes, you have rollers. Use any oil you wish.
not quite...
cars got roller cams in 2bbls in '85....4bbl never got roller cams...
trucks, they got roller cams when they got TBI....IIRC '88 for 318, '89 for 360....if it's a TBI, it's a roller cam.
btw, '98 is a magnum....definitely roller cam
