Hello all, I'm thinking of doing an engine swap to an AMC 360 which I hear is an easy swap but need a few parts and this is where my question comes in. Would I be better off buying a donor vehicle such as a Grand Wagoneer with a 360 where I would have engine mounts, radiator and buy flywheel or get a 360 and buy mounts, radiator, flywheel? In general, what all can be used from the Grand Wagoneer? Other than having a spare set of axles to rebuild and use later is there any benefit?
