Looks cool!
I always seem to end up with pairs of vehicles... still waiting for a decent warlock to show up.

In this case I figure I already have a lil red so if I can get a warlock and one that's big block or 4x4 (or both!! smile ) to be a bit different then I already have would be the cool second drive

Always liked the Warlock, being black is sinister. We do you find parts for these trucks? I’m looking at a lil red, needs work

The lil red specific parts you're mostly looking at used stuff but lcuklily a lot of stuff is typical old Dodge truck parts but that's still harder to come by compared to chevy and ford stuff.

Very nice!!! Did it come from Pa?
Posted By: GODSCOUNTRY340

Re: '79 Warlock taking shape - 09/23/20 02:47 PM

Yes, I bought it in Pa. Here's the engine ready to install- 1970 340, ported heads with 2.02" valves, Hemi grind cam, Torker II intake, bored .040 with 10-1 pistons. The 360 in it runs great but too many oil leaks and the valve seals are going away (smoking at start up). Since this 360 is only rated around 185 horsepower and the 340 has close to 480 horsepower and more torque the change was a no brainer.
