I might be wrong but I think by 89 you are stuck buying a van or truck engine, there were no car applications. So you do have to figure on buying a car oilpan but that isn't that big of a deal. If you are going low buck and want to use factory heads I prefer the 93 and later Magnum 360's with a different intake manifold on them.

Truck & Van only, I don't think Mopar was building a V8 RWD platform in that time period.. 

Sheldon treed me.. :rofl:  If your going to run Magnum heads that lets you look for more engines cause the 360 magnum ran through 03...  And if your going to use the heads look for an R/T package engine...


[edit]
In 1993, Chrysler Corporation released the next member of the Magnum family: the 5.9L V8. This was based on the LA-series 360ci engine, and included the same upgrades and design features as the 5.2L. The standard 5.9L created 230 hp (170 kW) @ 4,000 rpm and 330 lb·ft (449 N·m) @ 3,250 rpm. It was upgraded in 1998 to 245 hp (183 kW) @ 4,000 rpm and 335 ft·lbs (454 N·m) @ 3,250 rpm. However, Chrysler came out with the performance-oriented R/T version in 1998. This engine was provided with a more aggressive camshaft profile, and it was rated for 250 hp (190 kW) and 345 lb·ft (469 N·m). The 5.9L R/T came factory-installed in 1998-2001 Dodge Dakota R/T pickups and Dodge Durango R/T SUVs. It was also installed in the Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 5.9, only available in 1998. The 5.9L Magnum was available until the 2003 model year, when it was replaced with the 5.7L Hemi V8 engine.[12]

Actually I have found roller blocks from 87-92 , , I cannot think of any cars with a 360 in 87 but any truck or van with multiport EFI
