... SO What is the best & cheapest way to get a bigger motor in my 1988 D250 Flat bed truck .
Nine actually has a 5.2L 318CID . i DON'T EVEN HAVE A 360.
so I've been toying with going to the wrecking yard or Craig List & buying a 360 Motor & then taking it to my Machine shop buddy. & Getting him to bore it So I can have few more cubic inches.
..... Now I guess the biggest question is Could I use the 318 EFI stuff from the heads up. Or is the same year model the same or is the 360 EFI STUFF different from my 318 stuff. & Can you run the 318 intake on the 360.
...........Now I'll Probably get the 360 efi stuff on top of a purchased engine But It might not be as good as my engines stuff. SO as to not have to fit items that aren't good I was hoping the 318 & 360 efi items were the same .
I don't know so tell if they interchange .
But my old truck needs a bigger motor.
But i DON'T WANT TO SPEND 3k .
thanks
