    360 question?

    Since I am on a rebuilding program I am thinking about the next two engines to be done once I finish the FE 410 and Ford Vulcan. One would be the 360-2V in the Polara which is at 76,000 miles. Could go longer but I don't want to rebuild when in my 80s. Now I am not going to change over to a 4...

    360 4 bbl intake

    I have been looking into obtaining the above intake for future use on my 360 with 2 bbl intake. Don't want an aftermarket. Now my question pertains to the port size. Is there just one version of the 4 bbl for use on all LA engines or were there different versions based on engine size?

    Strange valve train issue suddenly

    Ok, this is not exactly Mopar related yet has people stumped. Last year I took Dart heads off my 302 because in the end I wasn't happy with them. So I got my original 302 heads rebuilt and a very nice job it was. Took the other heads off, installed these, changed out the cam for another, slipped...

    Timing cover

    Ok, since I was bringing down a 289 intake for hot tanking I thought I would bring down my very heavily caked timing cover. Thought I would remove the seal and saw what looked like a flange on the outside. I'm going this is very different from the way Ford did it. So I go to the FSM to take a...

    U-joints

    Alright so I am reading about Dave's problem this morning. Afterwards I'm thinking about my u-joints. I had my truck done since it has a carrier in the middle but I did my other Fords myself. So I am thinking I should replace the ones in the Polara. Searching the parts catalog I see the numbers...

    Draining and mount

    Well it cooled enough to look under the car for the drain plugs as a core plug over the starter is leaking. Found it at 9/16" size but WTH! Does one ever get those things out? I've always managed to get them out of my Ford blocks to replace with petcocks but this one is a whole other thing. Hmm...

    Charcoal vapor canister

    I need to make sure I get something straight in my thinking. In 1973 Mopar made things easier for them by connecting the purge line of the vapor canister to a purge port on the carb of some engines. Called it the Venturi System as opposed to the 1972 Ported System on all engines. Now if one...

    My finicky 360

    Things cannot be that hard when it comes to tuning a Mopar 360 could they? I have no trouble with all the Ford engines but the 360 denies me. Today I went to take it out for a drive. Noticed that the engine had a subtle surge and at times a subtle stumble. Felt the slight surge when on the...

    Keeping the car running

    Two weeks ago I started the Polara in order to move it for access to the garage. Started out fine in high fast idle. Knocked it down to the next notch after 15 seconds and ran fine. After a minute down to normal idle. While at that point I started another car to exit the garage. Came out and...

    Alignment

    Since having replaced the front end steering components and ball joints I knew I would have to get an alignment. Don't have a lot of free days to do it on so need to plan ahead for this. Called the place where I had gotten tires for three cars, with very good prices, to check it out. Told it was...
