Lightning ll, good info..Can I get that in aluminum, should be able to don’t you think? Will that be enough cooling for a high performance application? Thanks, much appreciated, Jim..

The 360 engine swap is in and running..The 360 is built and roughly 400 HP so cooling is critical..Bought a Griffin aluminum radiator to fit in my 1978 Aspen from Summit guaranteed to fit and it doesn’t..Just called Summit and they can’t find a radiator to fit, they said Griffin could custom...

Question number two, just got off phone with Summit about the mechanical fuel pump…two pumps, stock replacement 50.00, Edelbrock high flow 220.00, the fellow I got the engine off of ran an electric fuel pump, talked to him today and told him I was running a mechanical fuel pump he he said if I...

A ok guys, I’ve been posting a lot and more to come..very much appreciated…Jim…

Hello, Jim here…went to get a mechanical fuel pump today for my 360, fellow at the parts store asked what year the engine was, told him I would check with the fellow I bought the engine off of..previous owner told me he believed it is a 1971 but to make sure to check the numbers on the passenger...

This is my first mopar so I’m learning a lot in a very short period of time..one thing I can honestly say is all of my questions have been answered in a snap of a finger and your all a good bunch of guys with years of good advice..I will have many more questions for sure and I thank you all..Jim..

hey M_Body_Coupe, Jim here, I defiantly want to save some money on the headers, I would rather not spend mucho dollars if not needed..will the Hooker 5901s clear all obstacles such as the starter, streering column, and any other things that are in the way that can interfeer,I can defiantly drive...

LSM360,great info! Was ready to bolt on the exhaust manifolds which honestly I didn’t mind doing to simplify things but when a few of the guys here on the forum commented that my 400 horse engine could lose up to a 100 horsepower and would choke out my engine badly I had second thoughts about...

Duke5A if you get my last message get back to me for I have some header questions…thanks, Jim…

Hello all, Jim here..Pulled the 318 out of the 78 Aspen today and the 360 is going in this coming new week..The 360 is semi built roughly 375/400 horse, priced an aluminum radiator, 1 row with cooling fan 1,400 bucks, with out fans 880 bucks, cant imagine what a 4 row would cost..I’m installing...

Cam is pretty high lift 575/575, mopar purple..so what you are saying I’m going to turn a nicely put together set up for an engine and choke it out completely, not good…didn’t think the manifolds would kill it that bad, ok convinced that the header route is the only way to go..guys, thanks for...

The 318 that’s in the car right now has exhaust manifolds which run into a nice dual exhaust system with flow master mufflers,so if I put the manifolds on the 360 everything should bolt right up for an easy job is what in thinking..actually the manifolds with the flow masters sound terrific..the...

Guys, thank you for the info..the 360 that’s going in this week is roughly 400 horsepower..let’s just say I really want to simplify things and make things real easy for now and I install the stock manifolds until I get things straightened out with the headers..I know I will be giving up some...

Aspen500, if possible can I get your email address, if not it’s all good..my email address is gormanjames271@icloud.com thanks, Jim Gorman..

I have a 360 going in my 78 Aspen this week, trans is a 727 with a column shift..I called Dougs and TTI and they said there was nothing for my application..I’m very new to Mopars so there’s a lot to learn, there are guys on here running headers on their F Bodies,what headers do you run with no...

Hello everyone, I picked up a 360 and I’m thinking about running exhaust manifolds,don’t know if I’m ready to spend mucho dollars on a set of tti headers quite yet..I’ve been reading up on the better flowing Magnum and Jeep Gran Cherokee manifolds..My question is,just out of curiosity why can’t...

One last question,with the gears and ad ons listed above how do you think the engine will perform performance wis..thanks, Jim..

3 angle valve job, bigger valves? Thanks, Jim..

Jim here, how do you think the setup I described will perform, I know it’s not going to be a 350/400 horse tire shredder but I’m hoping it will perform from light to light rather quickly if needed..

hello all,Jim here..where I’m at with my 318 today is where a lot of you were at 25 years ago..I have a 1971 318 engine that runs great,I know it has low compression somewhere in the 8:6:1 range..as of this time I’m going to leave the pistons down in the hole and live with the compression that...

Hey 531, Jim here..my car has a 8 3/4 with 323s and the 1St thing I did this week was pick up a complete center section ready to drop in with 391s..I figured that would be the biggest bang for the buck to get the pretty much stock 318 moving along a little quicker.. I know the most logical thing...

Hey Aspen500, I was pretty much born into the world of Chevies, I don't know if I was a little envious or mabey a little jealous but when I got around the Mopar crowd things were different, more organized, a tighter bunch of guys, and the cars were beautiful to boot...thanks for your response...

Typo, Mopars..thanks, Jim..
