I believe Garret was refering too the fact 360's are externally balanced...
Not mine.
I thought the late model ones are still extrenally balanced just don't require the jumbo weight... Be the first to admit I don't know late model stuff that well but....

Mine was externally balanced when I got it, sure... It isn't now. I drilled some huge holes in the crank and JB Welded lead fishing weights in there myself Don't knock it, this trick always won me the Pinewood Derby!

I'd like to see pics of your solution for the bypass hose. me, I redrilled my heads to reuse my LA RPM air gap.
BTW, the smaller waterneck is on all '80-up small blocks, and IIRC is the same size as a chevy as well.

how'd you handle the 90 degree turn? or does the honda hose have a molded bend in it?

I'd like to know, too.
Currently I have a slightly kinked LA hose on there I'd like to not have to use.
Brian, snag me some detail shots and let me know what year/model part it was.

With the motor having 517k on it, I take it that the duster has been very reliable
The 360 swap is looking great so far!!
Well, I bought it at 238K and rebuilt the 318 at 250,000.
My second year in college, at about 258K I drove it through the Eel river. Made it across, miraculously. Not something I recommend doing or something I would do twice.

Probably not.
I am considering using 2 short pieces of rubber hose and a whole mess of threaded plumbing fittings.

the other option is to cut 2 holes in the hood and use 12" of universal flex-hose.
I vote for this solution.
