360 install update

alex

I just thought i would post this seeing as I asked so many questions earlier.I got my 360 engine mounted in my 79 cj7,I left the waggoneer engine mount brackets on and I also used the original 6 cylinder engine mount frame horns,I just had to drill a couple holes in the 6 cyl. frame brackets and raise the engine about 1 1/2" Like some body else did.I got the 360 running and I had 50 psi at idle and 40 psi of oil pressure after 10 minutes.I am extremely happy and just wanted to thank the people who helped me out with all their reply's to my postings!! :t: :lo1l: :? :? :?

Yeah thats the tough part. When i first installed my 360 I pulled the front tires off the ground a bunch of times.....until my tranny blew apart :oops:

Congrats Alex, and lots of fun with it
