If you don't mind a used one I have the cam out of 98 318. A friend of mine has everything to measure wear I am going to have its specs soon it is still in my truck but should be out within a couple of days as long as i have time to get out there. I only have tranny bolts and exaust to remove before yanking out the engine. And one stupid motor mount bolt that will be manhandled today
That's what i figured but not a major worry right now. I keep thinking of things as I go. I'm sure other things will pop up. All my linkage to transfer case looks pretty nasty also. MORE MONEY.
I think he's just using a 360 magnum block, in favor of the 98 318. It should be a direct swap, save for the harmonic balancer and the flex plate. 360's are externally balanced, 318's are internally balanced so you ned a harmonic damper and flex plate from a 360 donor.
Yep theyre weighted, seen quite a few lol. I'm not remembering exactly which one but either the 318 or 360 the flex plate is only drilled to fit the TC one way.
