If you're looking for a 360 block....they're all over the place in junk yards. The price of a new bare block for anything MOPAR is outrageous! I recently bought a 340 block on e-bay for $150 and you can guess from the price that it wasn't in the best condition. Just make sure there are no cracks. Even if the bores are crappy, you can always have them resleaved (as I did) and still come out cheaper than buying a new block. You can also look for new ones at Year One if you really really want to spend the money or MOPAR performance or even your local Chrysler dealer.

Good Luck!

I'll back brian on this one. If you're looking for a steel block 318/360 block, the salvage yard is the ticket. You can probably get an entire engine for 100-200 bucks.

A magnum engine will cost a bit more.
