engine swap question
Hello, I just brought home a 67 camper special and it appears that the motor is locked up(freeze plug on passenger side was gone), She most likley has a 352, So I am wondering if a 390 or 360 is a bolt in or if the motor mounts,bell housing exhaust mainifolds are different on the various years.
Thanks for any input you can provide.
P.S. does this site have spell check when you post, I am terrible at typing and spelling isin't much better

I agree, any 360 and many 390 is a direct bolt up, some of the older 390s may have different motor mounts.
The 360 can be rebuilt as a 390 by using a 390 rotating assembly. The 390 is the engine of choice for most.
Spell check works on this computer, don't know if the site provides it or what.
