“We found this $5000 engine with two thousand dollar heads for four hundred bucks, just like the average person would, then act like it needs to be rebuilt so it can seem like thats why someone sold it for scrap value”
There's no telling what you will find at a swap. Especially the larger shows. It's rare but it does happen. I would bet with that mismatched balancer it was tossed "out back" and forgotten.
Except you do come across cheap things like this when someone is cleaning out their garage. When I was 18 I bought a 69 mustang fastback for $1250. The guy was asking $3000, but we had an engine so he decided to keep the built 351C with 500hp and sell the rest to us for just $1250.
Was hoping this would be a mostly stock build like a real backyard mechanic at home would assemble on a shoestring budget. But as soon as they said they bought that motor for under $500 bucks I knew this episods was gonna be a joke, you couldnt even buy the cylinder heads in used wore out shape for that let alone the expensive deep sump oil pan and demon carb, I think they did it because they didnt want to do a all stock motor and only make 200hp and disappoint people but that's how it really is if your looking for a motor like this you not gonna find anything like it for under $1,000. Their acting like his motor was all junk and super cheap but for alot of people most of the parts on that motor are way out of people's budget, most people are lucky to get a decent carb and intake but for cylinder heads, fancy oil pan, and all the other goodies this motor is out of reach for alot of people and these shows make this stuff seem cheap but in reality its not.
Junkyard my ass, any junkyard is going to see that for what it is and strip the parts for sale individually. They got a discounted disposal from a buddy who probably upgraded with a crate engine.
Magnum block there. But with the shaft monted rockers. It had to be drilled or a early magnum block. 91-92. But I've seen some people's make light a aluminum heads. But the .557 lift cam. That with the heads. Will help in the HP world. My Magnum (s) drop off in the upper rpm range but this set up it keep climbing. Oh the seat of the pants feel. It doesn't lay down.
@@torcher78 one of the worse ways to clean a head or block, creates massive divots. Look up fiatnutz and his machine shop videos, he's done dozens and dozens of heads that you have to machine to get the part flat again
If I found that engine for $400, I'd be asking where the guy selling it got it from. Also he would probably be asking me if I knew where he could get some "rocks"
My first thought when looking at this. Those heads are $700 a piece bare right now. If i could find that motor for $400 I wouldn't be asking any questions either...
All about budget? Yeah but how many of us are going to start with a near perfect engine with all those reusable high performance parts.. Science fiction.
Glad to see a small block mope build not many mess with em due to the restriction in the exhaust port runners they jus don't breathe as good awesome content
Surprise to see no one caught the fact. That's a magnum block with LA style heads. No oil going to the top through the block. Block not drilled. To supply the heads with oil. Push rods are solid. No oil passage in the Push rob That's what you get with Chevy guys. Building a mopar engine.
I really enjoyed seeing this engine, that somebody had spent a bunch of money on and then abandoned, cleaned up and put together properly. I hope it found a good home, as in some cool car of the era, and will enjoy a long life.
1) clean with oven cleaner or lye, gloves and glasses, and chase with rifle bore cleaning brushes to save a dollar, then toss on old tire into pickup bed and go to the car wash. Rust? look up electrolysis or soak in a molasses mix in a kiddie pool to save the next buck. 2) if you're really going to sand off gasket material from deck surfaces, use a flaaaat long board so you aren't digging in and leaving high and low spots with some circle grinder--otherwise you circle jerked yourself into more work when its time to seal up that head gasket. 3) no ScotchBrite pad on the cylinders, unless you want to screw up the cross hatch. Use a Magic Eraser with some ATF as a detergent to clean the cross-hatch. 4) installing cam before the crank gives you the ability to reach into the crankcase and help guide that camshaft in. Checking crank thrust when taking the block apart can tell you there's an issue to machine on before putting the crank in and checking the thrust to find there's an issue that needs addressing. 5) the Uncle Tony crowd will tell you to turn the pistons 180 degrees (shifting them from one bank to the other) to offset the wrist pin and get 5 more hp. 6) how to get cheap roller lifters and a cylinder head that flows better than the average360 LA head made between 1974 and 1984...buy a Magnum from the junkyard. funny how that cool electric pump disappeared.
lol got to laugh at the uncle tony joke! id love to see tony do a dyno before and after, id bet it loses power. by far the most outrageous claim I've ever heard. you'd think the aftermarket would have discovered this trick already, guess they're all just a little slow
Still waiting on richard holdener to do a dyno test. Uncle Tony also still paints the inside of the block. saying it prevents rust. In reality, no one has ever pulled a sealed engine out of a junkyard to find rust inside--the oil film left behind repels water. More importantly, if painting the inside of the block ever did the things folks claim, why aren't they painting the heads, the crankshaft, the connecting rods, the cam, the pistons...don't all those parts need the same benefits? I'll make a prediction now, swapping pistons turns out to make 5hp. We'll see.
@@mattmcneice7223 There may be some variable between engines that offers a chance, like someone cleaned something and voila got better cylinder seal and felt a difference--same people who swear their 305 pulls as well as any 350 out there. Someone like Smokey Yunick should have measured a difference, but he thought long connecting rods were the winning formula but Reher and Morrison couldn't duplicate his results. The aftermarket should have found something, but they also sold us windshield wipers with little wings and spoilers on them and magnets to clamp around your fuel line :)
Nice 360 build and I am glad that Mike's eye injury was not worse than it was and I am glad that he is Ok. I have learned myself to always wear safety glasses and even with safety glasses things can still happen, I have had my close calls wearing these too! Mike mentioned that he was getting a different pair of safety and I was wondering if someone could please share a link as to what Mike decided to go with if possible please. I really enjoy your channel and looking forward to seeing some more builds!!
Well son ....been there done that!!! You never know !!!! I had a piece of metal bounce of my cheek off my safety glasses and in to my eye! Crap happens!!! LOL
450 dollars my ass. No one has an engine like that and sells it for anything under 2,500 minimum. Alumium heads, Jesel rockers, retrofit solid roller lifters, solid roller cam, single plane intake, electric water pump, and moroso oil pan? No chance. Junkyard my ass and 450 dollars my ass.
as someone who does structural metal fabrication in a shipyard environment, the best thing for grinding is safety glasses and a face shield. it's called double eye protection. if I am working at home I never grind with glasses but grab the face shield. It prevents a lot of injuries
They built a 410 stroker motor a year ago, promising a part 2 with dyno testing. I know it's somewhere in the low 500's in HP and TRQ, but......we're still waiting......
Because the engine got tore up you go back through the video and pay attention to detail they use solid pushrods so there was no way in hell for the rocker arms to get oil since I'm the late model blocks that do not have La oiling Provisions you have to use shaft Mount roller rockers that oil through pushrod when using LA style cylinder heads on a Magnum block or you need an early Magnum block 93 to 95 that are still drilled for LA oiling.
The heads, intake, and valve covers, not to mention the oil pan and roller conversion are quite expensive, normally you might find a used or junkyard engine with one of these for $500. But not all. The last small block i built cost 7k in parts including twisted wedge heads $1500 each, callies billet crank 2k, carillo rods , king bearings, mahle pistons, chrome rings, needle bearing small end machining for rods Bowtie block, deep sump pan, titanium valves with 5 angle valvejob and port blending etc, secret carb and intake it made 780 hp, not bad for a stock bore chevy 350. But obviously not unobtainable either with careful planning and execution, research etc. I researched the parts combo for 2 years before ordering anything, sometimes thats what it takes to build a dream engine,,,, lotsa dreaming,,,, then lotsa money and labor, and patience.
Guys i love the channel amd what you guys do but there is no way you bought this motor for the price you stated. Please dont mislead your viewers and give those just starting out in this hobby false hope that theyll find a motor like this for such a price.
@@scottpeters371 no way, you couldn't even buy those heads used for what they claimed that they paid. Realistically your gonna pay atleast $1000 for that engine especially with the carb,intake,distributor and oil pan alone are worth way more than what they paid. Honestly it's hard to find a running bone stock 360 for what they claimed they bought this one for.
No way you paid $400 for that. Just the accessories alone are worth that. It would sell for $1500 minimum. That is no way near a junk yard motor. That would be like hitting the lottery with all that for that price.
I rebuilt a 1968 327 using a crank from another block.no line boring re used rods and pistons. Used cam found in junk yard with unkown lifters.new bearings and rings honed cylinders. lapped in used multiple different best looking vavles from multiple heads in the best 2 looking heads with Ford cupped valve seals. 4 barrel Chevy factory cast iron holley bolt pattern intake from junk yard.

I had what happened to Mike happen to me twice. Same situation, same eye. Using a grinder, the first time I just had my eyeglasses on (in the military, that was considered sufficient). Had to go to the VA ER to have the shard removed. About a year or so later, I was using a grinder again, although this time, I had the type of full safety glasses on OVER MY EYEGLASSES. I still got popped! Off to the VA I go again, for the SAME DOCTOR to see me. Had to explain I had proper eyewear on this time. And that I was switching to full goggles (think DeWalt ski goggles) from here on out (which I did). They had to use a syringe to remove the object both times. That prevented any further incidents. I have always said I am the real life incarnation of Wile E Coyote and/or Tim the Toolman Taylor.
I found a 2000 dodge club wagon for a couple grand and well , it has a 360 motor in it but it seems they must a did some work to it cause it's a sleeper with posi track !
Can you give a list of parts used in this build (both "existing junkyard" and new parts? I have 2 360 Magnums that I will be rebuilding one for a daily Durango and one for a 2500 that I really did pick up for $400. Real help needed!
I wonder if they kept track of where each lifter was before they removed them. Since they're reusing the both the cam and lifters they've already developed a wear pattern.
So have you guys ran this engine again because I'm sure it's had rocker arm failure by now. You have a magnum block with LA cylinder heads and as you can see in the video it is not an early production block that still has the LA oiling drilled. You guys definitely need to get someone that knows about Mopars in the shop. You needed to have used shaft Mount rocker arms that oil through pushrod since you no longer have block oiling to the Head. such a shame as first the Trickflow headed 360 and now this one.
"That engine aint $400!" Taken straight from the "I'm too broke for this" starter pack. Why do people complain about the prices on these things? This stuff isn't cheap. If you want to spend only $400, continue up-badging you charger
Rust on valve springs=straight into the trash. And they could have rebuilt that Demon carb for around 100 bucks or less. The core motor for 475 might have been believable if it were some used up old W2 dirt track engine or something like it from an estate sale.
You should have gone to an eye doctor brother. I've been there and done that. Sat in our local hospital for 4 hours and realized it's time to buck up and wait for a specialist they did me much better than the local hospital
A lot of guys commenting on how there’s no way they got this engine for $450 and then I look on my local craigslist and see a guy selling a running 360 with a 727 trans out of a small motorhome for $475.
“We found this $5000 engine with two thousand dollar heads for four hundred bucks, just like the average person would, then act like it needs to be rebuilt so it can seem like thats why someone sold it for scrap value”
I do really like this comment :D and couldn't agree more lol.

I ain't never seen a used engine with kind of stuff for $400.00. Yeah just the "average" person can get one. The Moroso oil pan alone wasn't cheap.

Real help needed!
Straight round cylinder bores, are the most important ingredients,in the production of horsepower.... "Mopar tech manual"
I wonder if they kept track of where each lifter was before they removed them. Since they're reusing the both the cam and lifters they've already developed a wear pattern.
nice work guys!
That was a steal i wish i could find one with all that aftermarket stuff for that orice
This engine looks just like the one Joe and........whats the big guys name that used to be on this show originally built like 10 years ago
I had actually thought it was one they just built before this episode lol till i seen the rust @@Jpaydirt
You got lucky. That's what that is.
You sir have some pre-ignition going on. I watched the bolt in the cylinder head back itself right out. That is a drag racing trick by the way
What if somebody had a internally balanced that engine
@7:15 and it shows the Camshaft distributor gear, question: Is that Steel Gear you are using with a Roller Camshaft? or is it Bronze?
Is this a magnum or LA block?
I'm guessing the vehicle was probably in a flood . Any other ideas why water would be in the engine..
Glad you eye was ok after that!
noone is going buy a 360 like that for $475 lol... clueless
Those heads are almost $1400 alone so yeah, total bullshit build.
more detail about the knife plz
Must have had a inside connection to get that motor that cheap just saying
no way you found that engine for $475
How about rebuilding something new like an International 345? or 392? Kind of tired of the Mopar, GM, Ford rebuilds.
So have you guys ran this engine again because I'm sure it's had rocker arm failure by now. You have a magnum block with LA cylinder heads and as you can see in the video it is not an early production block that still has the LA oiling drilled. You guys definitely need to get someone that knows about Mopars in the shop. You needed to have used shaft Mount rocker arms that oil through pushrod since you no longer have block oiling to the Head. such a shame as first the Trickflow headed 360 and now this one.
“Build” is not what happened here you refreshed an engine that was already built and I highly doubt it was $4xx lol
bullshit, $475 for that engine? i guess they have special privileges' to get performance engines for 95% discount lol
80$ for a hot tank yah mean
Where's this junk yard??
Wondering why there's a Camaro at the end of this Mopar build
I love this
OH SNAP, good joke , blind in my left from military , but I still laughed
What happened with Chuck Hanson?
"That engine aint $400!" Taken straight from the "I'm too broke for this" starter pack. Why do people complain about the prices on these things? This stuff isn't cheap. If you want to spend only $400, continue up-badging you charger
Where can I find a 318 for that price 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Please how much do you want for that motor I need it bad
Somehow they find a ridiculously low price on built 360 then trash it by putting on a tiny carburetor. These came stock with 850CFM
clickbait, not from a junkyard
It would of been graet if jou guys could put the old damper back ,to see the difrerence in power
No a micrometer but calipers.
Will you sell that motor you building to somebody that needs it
Rust on valve springs=straight into the trash. And they could have rebuilt that Demon carb for around 100 bucks or less. The core motor for 475 might have been believable if it were some used up old W2 dirt track engine or something like it from an estate sale.
Feel the eye pain I was çutting a exhaust I almost lost an 👁️
Number 1 :)
You should have gone to an eye doctor brother. I've been there and done that. Sat in our local hospital for 4 hours and realized it's time to buck up and wait for a specialist they did me much better than the local hospital
The LA360 has a different vib. ball. as well as weights on the converter or flywheel. This should have shone up .
It can be internally balanced.
@@annamckinney6622 But they did not do that as it is $$$$
Well, it was on an LA 360.
You guys were blessed, the previous owners, were to ashamed to ask for help. Wrong balancer!!!!
A lot of guys commenting on how there’s no way they got this engine for $450 and then I look on my local craigslist and see a guy selling a running 360 with a 727 trans out of a small motorhome for $475.
These guys don't really "build engines" they "throw together parts."
