Well it looks like this engine is going to get a little more low budget. The block I was building for this engine has a crack in the cylinder wall. so I need to find a replacement. So what I am thinking of doing is. I have a fresh 360 with no miles, but unfortunatly has cast pistons. ITs ballanced and ready to go. I think I am just going to put my cam in it, and run it. In the mean time I will build a much stronger short block, with forged parts.

I think I am just going to run the 904, befor it was freshend it held up to a mild 318 with 150 shot.

I think I am going to build my log manifolds, I think they will fit much better than the cast manifolds.

Not true, drivers side doesn't fly.

Runs into the steering box (power) at least in my case.




Not just your case, Magnum manifolds only fit with manual steering, not power in A bodies. They do fit power steering in B bodies.

Yes. I had a 3/8" (about) spacer made to relocate the PS about 3/8" (again, about).
