Default '74 dart

i have a 1974 dart swinger. it has a 360 in it now but the motor is not in the best of shape. i want to supe it up a bit and maybe even put a blower in it. what would everyone reccommend? i think the block is still good in the motor i have so i would like to still use that.

Check out Indy Cylinder heads, Hughes engines, or Muscle Motors. I would do a .030 bore and stroke with a Lunati or Comp Cams camshaft. A stroker kit would include the pistons and rings and I have one from RPM machine,

Default 360 hop up...

I took the low buck approach to boosting the hp in the 360 in my "72 Duster "Shagnasty": Purple Shaft cam(484 lift/284 duration app), Edelbrock 340 intake,750 dual feed carb(vacuum secondarys), Bosch waterpump,3 core radiator("87 Dodge 3/4 ton),...jacked the output up to about 375hp (on paper, haven"t had it on a chassis dyno yet but it runs twelves on the eigth mile drag strip)...kingoftow
