I pulled my 318 out of my 73 roadrunner and putting a 408 "360" magnum engine in. I saw on another thread that the engine mounts would be the same but I have a gap on one side and I'm not sure what mounts I'm supposed to get. I'll also need a new clutch .75" pilot bearing and .975" transmission shaft for a A833 that can handle 465 hp if anyone has any suggestions. I bought a borgeson power steering pump and was looking for recommendations on a cooler. I was wondering if I might need a bigger radiator?

Motor mount issue is age old going from 318 to 360.
Use spacers or weld one in.
Correct 360 mounts are not super easy to find, but I'm sure there are some somewhere.

I'll do that then thanks
 
It's been mentioned that Magnum blocks can have metal near the mounts that can interfere with car applications since they were designed for trucks.

That's probably not an issue with spool mounts, though.
