Re: 360 la engine

[Bill M <y1topbanana73@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just remember...a 360 is EXTERNALLY BALANCED!! That means you must have a weighted torque convertor OR a weighted flex plate. The weighted flex plate is available from B&M I believe. If you put a 318 (engine internally balanced) torque convertor on a 360, you will have MAJOR vibration problems that could damage the engine.

Thank you Gary and Dodger,

It will be the right engine for the time being, I need to get it on the road
and enjoy the labour I have put in it. 5 years I think?

Best regards, Knud erik Holm, 62 fury

Emne: Re: 360 la engine

I don't have 1987 but here is 1978:

360 2-barrel =155hp @ 3600
360 4-barrel = 220hp @ 4,000

http://www.allpar.com/mopar/318.html gives a summary history of LA engines,
look at the bottom of that page for "Chronology of the LA series Chrysler V8
engines"

Thanks,
Gary H.
