New to this site, but not to M bodies. I own a 1985 Plymouth Gran Fury Salon AHB that has an X head 360 w/ TTI headers, 727, and 3.55 geared 8 1/4. The engine is hurt, though, and blows smoke out of the exhaust on one side. Plus it blows out the dipstick & oil.
Working on finishing a J head 360 rebuild to swap in. The 360 was originally going to go into my second car:

Second car is a 1988 Plymouth Gran Fury AHB. This car has been stored in a barn for almost 12 years. Mice haven't been nice to it. Crackhead stole the exhaust with the 3 catalytic converters (no big loss, TBH), the Edelbrock AVS, AC coil, and radiator. The sophisticated fellow that I paid to move it tried to pull it out while in park. By the support that goes from the bottom of the radiator panel to the front nose cone/ hood latch.

So long story short, I'm going to be looking for M Body parts.

I also own a 1986 Dodge Ram w150, 318/ 727. Putting a plow on it currently & chasing electrical gremlins the wiring is causing. Also a 1973 Dodge Charger SE, 400/ 727. Rolling shell.

I'll post more of the Fury(s) later as well as a Parts Wanted post. Thanks for entertaining my ramblings!!
 
Welcome!
Your handle has me laughing.
I've been working on an International Harvester 1086 -- IH1086
So I glance at your handle and see IH8G and immediately start being confused. Whats an International Harvester 8G?

Then its like watching a real life 'dumb blonde' joke ... Oh Oh I get it ... I hate GM and Ford... LMAO!

(No offense to any blondes out there. .. I'm a victim of age ... my first jokes I learned were dumb blonde ones.)
