I am seeing more engines for sale on the list that customer engines. Time to open the flood gates to all the poor souls on the other forum that need your help. Trying to clean out the stable. Not opening any flood gates and there are those that don't even know that they need help. And, I have all I want to do as it is. I would really like to get ahead and have a couple of 360's done and on the shelf. About the time I am ready to throw one together, someone is hounding me for it. It is a good thing I guess.

63. 383stroker: 4.155" bore x 3.53" stroke IMG_4319 by Rick Jones, on Flickr This one of those extra special blocks with a "X" at then end of the casting number. IMG_4315 by Rick Jones, on Flickr The block is out of a 1986 Jeep. They added the two core plugs at the rear of the block on 2-5-1979 IMG_4316 by Rick Jones, on Flickr I Sonic Checked every hole at the thinnist spots. I check in several places and write down the measurement. IMG_4318 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Even with a 4.155" bore, there is still pleanty of meat in the cylinder walls. IMG_4320 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Cast 360 crank Off-set ground to 2" journals and a 3.53" stroke. The journals was widened a little to accept the chevy 6 cyl 6" stroker rods. IMG_4321 by Rick Jones, on Flickr 3831 by Rick Jones, on Flickr On the high performance stuff, I drill the main bearing feed holes to 5/16" matching the oil passage below it.

Here is a shot of the connecting rods that I am using. Expensive but, they were the only ones I could find off of the shelf wide enough for the 360 crank. IMG_4333 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Specifications on the pistons. I ordered them so that they would work in a 343 block or a 360 block. In a 360 block with 58CC heads the compression ends up at 9.25:1 IMG_4335 by Rick Jones, on Flickr IMG_4336 by Rick Jones, on Flickr 383CompRatio by Rick Jones, on Flickr

63. 383stroker: 4.155" bore x 3.53" stroke. Typical rework on the timing set. 15000 Milodon which is a re-packaged SA Gear unit. The oil feed hole in the Comp Cam doesn't quite line up with the slot in the timing gear so, I will mive it over a little. IMG_4416 by Rick Jones, on Flickr IMG_4418(1) by Rick Jones, on Flickr After I moved it over a little bit. IMG_4421 by Rick Jones, on Flickr IMG_4419 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Front side. Not a fan of the huge oil slots so, I braze them up. IMG_4417 by Rick Jones, on Flickr I cleaned up the oil slot as well. IMG_4420 by Rick Jones, on Flickr

I chase all the threads in the timing cover with a tap. Amazing how much crap you can clean out of the threads. tap1 by Rick Jones, on Flickr tap2 by Rick Jones, on Flickr I always try to round up all of the bolts for the water pump and timing cover BEFORE I start putting RTV all over the gaskets. After I press the front seal in the cover, I coat both sides of the gasket and then install the water pump first. I tighten the bolts about 2/3rds tight. IMG_4623 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Then I coat the engine side of the gasket with RTV and stick it to the block. IMG_4624 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Then I coat the timing cover with RTV making sure that all of the oil passages are clear on both the block and timing cover. I install the cover with the bolts 2/3rds tight then go back the next day and final tighten everything up. IMG_4625 by Rick Jones, on Flickr After the timing cover is installed, I trim the excess gasket at the bottom of the block where the oil pan needs to seal. IMG_4626 by Rick Jones, on Flickr

85. JW343: Tear down, inspect, fix, rebuild. - I have drdrunk busting this one down for me. Rattle can rebuild with orange paint underneath. I am sure it is a quality job. 343 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Pulling the drain plug will be the first tell tale sign on the level of rebuild that this thing has had. Not the original plug so at least someone has bothered to take it out and replace it. 3431 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Typical. Plugged solid behind it. 3432 by Rick Jones, on Flickr Typical again.. Needs a complete rebuild. Bearings are shot, nice deep rust pitts in #3 cylinder etc. 3433 by Rick Jones, on Flickr This was suppose to be a check it out and start it up project. Turned into a mess.
