Wow it has been a long time... last time i was here you were on #21... little different... but still great. Well, onto my question. I bought a 77 2wd dodge half ton with a factory 360/727. the truck is basically bone stock with the exceptinh of the glass packs that the last owner put on. I am kinda lacking power... and as chances have it, I have a 413 out of a 65 Imperial (and if you know anyone who needs imperial parts (have some new yorker parts too) send them my way... I got to get rid of this stuff) and the tranny. I am still not sure what type of tranny it is. Well, the engine only has 55k miles on it but has been sitting for about 20 years. I have the gasket kit, and some HD rocker arms. I also figure the bearings are probabalyl shot, so I will replace those too. But what else am I going to need for this swap?? I really would like this engine in my little daily driver. Thanks for the help. Garrett
