I have a 1990 ramcharger 4WD AUTO with a 318 FI, I recently got it hot with radiator problems. It blows white smoke out the tail pipe, but not all the time. I must have a head gasket or cracked head issue. I am thinking about trying Barrs Stop Leak to buy me some time, let me know what you think about this.
The 90 Ram has over 150k on it and I do want to spend much $ to patch up a problem on a tired doggy engine. I have an old retired city truck that I bought for $300 a 1988 250 PU 2WD AUTO with a 360 4BL. I would like to put the 88 360 in my 90 318.
I would like to rebuild the 360 with a torque'er cam and better exhaust. I would also like to keep the FI on the 318 because it starts great in any weather. So it would be a big help if any one could clue me in on problems that I could run into with this transplant. Will the FI work on the 360, are 318 and 360 TBI's different. I have noticed on other post that there is a torque converter issue between 318 and 360. I could go to carberator if the FI is a lost cause. Thanks bpb,
