What ya got under the hood?(318 or 360 cubic inches)

if you're smelling it inside the truck then it's probably the heater core. look on the passenger floor for liquid, and check under the shroud that covers all the climate control stuff there too

I have a 01 q/c with a 318 dual exaust all the way with a h-pipe

Well I would rather have 3 18 year olds than 3 60 year olds! If I really had a chioce, I would chose 3 51 year olds from cleveland who are blowers!

I was thinking this was mildly amusing until you reference a ferd engine.

edit: and you'd want a Windsor block for a truck, Cleveland for a car.

i just bought a 01 3/4ton 4x4 auto with 360. this truck was purchased for pulling a 4 horse horse trailer. am i gonna have any problems with it? i hear alot of guys saying the 360 lacks pulling power.

Thank you Chizzle, I did not realize that a winsor was bulit for a truck and a Cleveland was for a car, hence the name Rookie. I always here poeple talking about how great Cleveland is. I just made the statement do to the little knowledge I know about engines. Thank you for the info.

I've got a 318 in my '99 Ram 1500. However it has been modified, and is SCT tuned, so it's a good bit more powerful than when I bought it stock.

My old Jeep had the 318. The 220 horses and 300 ft.lbs. made it a great performer. Milage was OK but dependablilty was the best. It had 112k on it and not so much as a burp out of it. I had it for six year and nothing broke on it.

gotta 360 in my 98 ss/t

got a 5.2 (318) in my 2000 RAM CHARGER 2wd with gibson shorties, pro flo 1002 and no mufflers for now. hoping to put a turbo on it next year to give it a lil more go!!! dont mind the wheels and window tint both are gone

318 with 295,502 miles and still running strong.

2000 1500 slt quad cab. 360 running strong at 104k miles. wish i could say the same for the rest of the truck.

MY FIRST RAM 98 WITH 318 .OK LITTLE MOTOR BUT SHE BLEW UP WITH JUST UNDER 80K MILE'S . MY CURRENT RAM IS A 360 . NITE AND DAY BETWEEN THEM 360 ROCK'S . 149K AND STILL STRONG KNOCK ON WOOD

I got a 488

i have had flat head 6, slant6 3ea, 318s 2ea, 413. built a 360 in 1993 made a mistake and put to big of cam in it . it would pass every thing but a gas station. i may have owned others but theres something that happens when you get old, but i forget what they are

i gotta straight 6 360 diesel if that counts

moe in wichita ks
sure a diesel is cool. each engine has its advantages and disadvantages. but i like ALL mopar engines.

only problem with mopar engines is that they are so expensive especially compared to chevys

moe in wichita ks
yes mopar engines do cost a lot to build. thats why i try to take good care of them. over the years i have found some tricks that help keep cost down. one is on distributors, i found if i pluged the vent in the cap with j-b weld it kepts mosture out. and i just got into the habit of putting a new cap and rotor on each fall. that way iam doing the work on my schedule.
