318 swap

[chrisd]

I know this is in here somewhere, but I can't find it. I've put a small block (360) in my '67 Charger 15 years ago, but can not remember if I had to have special mounts. As far as mounting in the car, is there anything out of the ordinary? I wouldn't think so, but I've got someone more interested in my 318 than I am right now.
Thanks

318 to 360 should not require any mods so going the other way should be the same.

They DO NOT require any mods to engine mounts.....

Sorry, I wasn't clear on that post. I've got the 1986 318 and someone wants to buy it and put it in his 1969 Coronet. I just recall any major changes that have to be done.

Was/Is the Coronet a small block car now or is it a big block car?

There is a minor difference in engine mounts between the 318 and 360. A few washers or a small tube stock cut to length will address the issue on the drivers side blocks engine mount though bolts.

If it is a big block to small block swap, look up Schmaucher creative services for help.

That's probably what I was thinking about the 360. I'm not sure if his car is a big block or small block. I'll direct him here.

Made a spacer for the 318 mounts for the 360. (driver side)
