Engine & Transmission match-Up Question...
Howdy all, I'm fairly new to the group and unsure of if this the correct forum to ask my question, but I will ask anyways and hope for answers...
I have an 1986 Dodge W350 (1 ton) with a 360 V8, 4x4 dually with manual transmission. I wanted to know if anyone knows if I can pull the original 360 in it and replace it with a 360 Magnum out of a 92-96 Ram 1500/2500 V8 360... specifically, will the magnum engine bolt up with the original transmission bellhousing from 86 that is still in the truck, or would I have to do a tranny change also, in order to get it all to work??? The Original 360 V8 in the truck from 86 is carb and I wanted to replace it with a NEW motor and not just another older style 360 that takes a carb and I really dont wanna drop the $$ to add fuel injection to the original motor and new intake and such, as that would cost more than a new 360 Magnum motor... So anyone with input, please reply...
~Thanks, Tom
