Early '70's 360 LA engine, with a non-cracked pair of 340 "X" heads. Page accompanying shows all part #'s for this engine. Do not recall if the balancing was done, but since I had the pistons pressed on the rods, I have to say it probably was. I do not know where my build sheet for this one ran off to, but a few moves later, it is in the wind...
Needs assembling (build your own!) and final trim of belts, hoses, carb, ignition, etc.
This was originally going to go in my daughters '72 Charger, but somehow she was 'convinced' that a 440 would be far better choice for that particular car....don't know a thing about how that happened, but....:^)
Block was bored .030" over at Bishop & Buell, passed mag inspection, line honed & painted, ARP main studs installed. Heads were a bit of an issue...went thru 4 sets before I finally found a pair that -weren't- cracked. New stainless valves, 2.02" Intake, 1.60" exhaust, sodium filled. Hardened exhaust seats installed, final seat angles to finish them & assembly. Do not have the spring kit w/ retainers & locks for this, somehow....think those grew legs during a move with "buddies"....
Crank was in good shape after cleaning & mag inspection, cut .010/.010", std in the mid.
Melling HV oil pump, DC head bolt kit, & lots of S/S ARP 'style" bolts for engine dress out. Other ARP bolts for internals.
Blue anodized DC valve covers. Comp Cam 20-212-2 hydraulic, & lifters. New Edelbrock Performer Sqr Bore Manifold.
Since this isn't your usual "lo-po" 360 truck motor, & these heads are just wickedly hard to source any more, it isn't priced in the usual "lo buck" area. I have a bunch over $5K in receipts from the mid '90's on this, & think that the mid $3k area is not un-reasonable?
Thanks for reading all this; any questions, requests for pixs, etc? Text or email is best. I get way too many spam calls these days, & usually don't answer if the # is not in my contacts. Leave a message if you like with a calllback #.
