I still love my carburetors.
On a budget, you can put several carbs on an engine and still stay under the fuel injection deep cost. Since this a project vehicle, it does not have to go in seconds on a cold winter morning. Plus, the fun in planning the cam, timing, carb is a fun challenge.I still love my carburetors.

good motors have one in my car now if you go with carb you have to change the cam you need one for carb motor you can use flex plate if it doesn't have the tine wheel on it you need a weighted convertor also you should enlarge the push rod holesI found a 1992 Non Magnum 360. Without looking too close I know this; it is a throttle body injection engine with a smog pump. It has the bigger exhaust manifolds, again, non magnum type.
So, obviously this is out of a truck, so it will need a car oil pan and oil pickup tube. The throttle body has to hit the trash, so a decent intake manifold and carb is needed. I'm thinking a Weiand action plus and Edelbrock thunder carb.
Is the distributor on a late LA with throttle body injection a vacuum advance type or do I need to ad a decent MP dizzy to the shopping list?
I've been wanting one of these pre magnum roller cam LA 360s for years. From what I've read, they were at the peak of perfection, then Dodge went to the magnum line. the 318 went magnum by 92 and then the 360 by 94. The 3.9 V6 was already a magnum by 91/92View attachment 11689
Any thoughts on this per magnum 360/ roller cam motor?
