360 Build

[Heavy_Metal_Thunder_81]

Another Hijack

stock 4bbl square bore intakes are out there too

I have one that I plan on using. I also have a Holley Street Dominator intake but am unsure which one to use. Suggestions?

[SC/397]

The Street Dominator is good for gobs of low end torque but will out of steam by 5K. I would step down to the Edelbrock Performer grind type of cam if you are going to use that Intake.

It all depends on what you want from your engine. I like a smooth running no issues engine in a 4x4 I'll do my hot rodding in cars.


I built the 360 for my J10 with a comp 260 cam, KB hyperutectic pistons , (around 8.8 -1 ) performer intake and a 1406 edelbrock carb. I like it, just what I wanted for a close to stock build.

A 268H type cam would be the limit unless you want a choppy idle and stall convertors. pistons for the 360 are much more limited in options than I expected. to get 9.5 you'll probably have to go with Bulltear or something like that. and remember 9.5 is going to take a very minimum of super at the filling station.

I'm in Golden, CO and have to deal with emissions and stock setups. nothing says not stock like BS edelbrock logos everywhere.

A little off subject, but could someone grind off the logos, paint the manifold to match the engine, and sneak through inspection?
By now these trucks probably outdate alot of the inspectors.

Why, no! That would be against the law!

I've heard that some unethical people reproduce an as-cast surface on the manifold where the incriminating evidence was ground away by laying a coarse sanding disk on the part and striking it with a hammer. Apparently this is pretty convincing once covered in a coat of OEM paint.

How these outlaws sleep at night, we may never know.

So how did that work out for you?

What ever are you suggesting?

Since I moved to the United States, I don't have to deal with that level of mechanical interrogation.

[j10jim]

I wonder what kind of course sanding disk would be needed? I mean just as a idle thought

[SC/397]

Not that I know anything about that sort of thing...
I have de-embossed and painted a couple of intakes for my own personal use. I would grind off the embossment then sand blast the surface to make it look like the rest of it.

Thank you everyone for the responses. I had some medical issues push back the build but it is apart now and ready to be put back. Time to order parts.

I am thinkning:

260H
Air Gap
DUI Ignition
Headers/dual exhaust
Slight increase in compression to probably 8.8-9:1
bore 10 over

All smog removed


What am I missing?

[Jeepyz]

Got any new updates on the build?

[440sixpack]

Unless you like heat and leaks I'd skip the headers.

HEAT

I have headers . So that?s why my jeep is so hot inside .
