    Hi there all.

    I have a 59 Plymouth suburban 4 door.
    She has a 318 with a manual transmission ( on the tree ).

    The 318 needs to be replaced.

    From what years / cars can I get a running engine from to directly replace?

    Many thanks.

    Jason. :anyone:

    I know of one recently plucked from a '60.
    Shipping across the pond would be brutal, well in excess of the engine cost which would be nominal. PM if you have the stomach(wallet) for this.
