My son has my old 96 Dodge pickup and evidently the old 360 is going thru oil really quickly, like a quart every 100 miles. He's in KC and would like to find a good rebuilt 360 for it. That is about his only option and can't be without a second vehicle for an extended amount of time. Any and all ideas appreciated. Thanks

Sounds like a leak issue not a new engine issue.
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.

Valve covers have a very small leak, not even leaving a spot on the ground. Even worse no black oil smoke like it's burning it or on start up, nothing.?????

Has the intake plenum been checked? Its very common for those to blow the gasket and cause oil consumption. If that is the issue, a functioning catalytic converter will burn up the oil and you will not see a leak on the ground.
