I finally took a 360 apart that looked really good inside. Good enough to throw new rings, bearings, cam at it and go. Basically, other than hot tanking the block and honing it, it didn't need any machining. The timing was right for DMX11 because he was in need of a engine in kind of a hurry. So, a refresh with the 268H Comp Cam. One of my favorites for a 304 or 360.

I had to finish this one up before I could get to it though. A 401 with a Cross Ram and dual 600 Holleys. I put the small 280H cam in it and compression is at 9.5:1. All the wrong parts it seems to me to go under a Cross Ram but it is a street car application that just has to look cool. Amazingly enough, it runs like a top and takes all of the carburetion well. It doesn't put out as much power as a Torker with a single 4 barel does but cool it does look.
