Try advanced adapters. They probably make an adapter to adapt the Chevy small block to about anything!!!!!

Biggest mistake is putting a chevy motor in a dodge. Why not put in a 318 or 360

the reason i am putting a chevy motor in a dodge is because i already have the motor and its totally rebuilt and its just easier then spending extra money and looking for another motor

I dont think its a very bad idea to put that 350 in a Dak but you do realize you will buring in hell for it after you die(that was a joke for you who didnt get it). Think of all the HP you can put in that small-block and performance parts are EVERYWHERE! Plus, it will be a real sleeper. Just dont get one of those windshield banners that say CHEVY POWER.

Yeah it will be sleeping on the sholder of the road with the hazzerds on.

I got a camaro 350 bored out to 358 with lumpy cam. Bowtie heads, Solid titanium roller lifters, titanium roller rockers, High compression pistons, Headers, No Cat and flowmaster exhaust. Engine was a CASCAR engine (Canadain version of nascar) but even more hopped up. Then i got a Team G single plain intake manifold with a holley double pumper 950cfm carb. Also running with a huge shot of nitros

Makes 780hp at 9200RPM.

All i can say is an engine like this should only go into a cheap car like a camaro or rear drive sedan. Its constantly broken and has 0 reliability. My friend did the same thing with a 360 it was a lot more money to build up and it was harder to get the power but once he did this engine rocks. It can drive all day with out any problems and makes roughly the same amount of power. He accually put this engine into a 79 camaro and theres your sleeper.

The only place that generic motors 350 belongs in a Dakota is in the bed ! If you really want a 350 put a turned down 360 crank in a 318.
