RE: AMC Swap

["Shubin, Pete" <PShubin@domain.elided>]

Spencer,  I would be real interested in hearing the play by play of your
swap.  
I am still planning on doing the same thing to my '72 258/T-18 but my
new 
baby girl kind of has priority over the Scout right now.  

What did you pay for the 360?

	howdy there scouters
	just picked up an amc 360 the other day and i was wondering
which motor
	mount needs to be changed (passenger or drivers side).  granted
i could
	take a closer look, but i havent come up with the time just yet.
also, i
	know that there has been much discussion of placing an amc v8
where the
	straight six used to be, but if anyone has done this i would
appreciate
	some advice before i tear into things. thanks.

	- -i know i will have to change the clutch etc.
	- -i know that the radiator will need to be swapped for a larger
one.

	and one more thing...........i dont want to hear any ih is
better than amc
	threads.........im already aware.
