I'm dropping a 360 in a Jeep CJ5. I need to know if theres a mounting difference between the 360 and 5.9 exhaust at the ports.

bolt pattern is the same, but the ports aren't. Magnums don't have exhaust air injection holes and pay very close attention to the manifold to head sealing area some applications get thin and blow exhaust out there.


They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

Ok. So I can buy a set of shorty 5.9 headers instead of hitting a junk yard for 360 manifolds.

I went the other way, 402 into a small block challenger and had trouble with my headers fitting around my steering. I never was exactly sure why it didn't fit but I think the motor mounts are in a different location on the 2 engines. Take a look at the motor mount locations see if that looks like a problem.

The flange part will & if the rest of the header clears you're looking good.

Since I have to weld up some engine mounts that would be no big deal. I can put the engine anywhere I need to. Dodge 360 in place of an AMC 258. Ok thanks to all.
