| Post subject: | 225 vs 360 |
I have a 1974 d100 with a 225 in it and a 904 that I just spent 650 on. The motor has a serious oil leak and rod knocks. But its been getting low on power flatly and smoking really bad. I think it has blowby on the piston rings and I don't feel like rebuilding a motor right now. I have a 360 out of a 1983 grand wagoneer that was bolted to a 727 but the trans is 4x4. Does anyone know if the 904 will bolt to the 360 |

Slant six transmissions do not bolt to smallblocks. However, for less than the cost of doing the conversion correctly you can rebuilt your slant. |

That '83 Grand Wagoneer engine would be the AMC 360. That won't bolt into any Chrysler product. Might see if you can trade it for a good 225. |

Try fixing the oil leaks and adjusting the valves on the slant six. You might be surprised. |

How do you adjust the valves? |

Hmmmm. First off, I recommend you get a factory service manual for your truck. In the meantime, here is how you adjust your valves. |
