My 408 came with it. The car lost its original engine sometime in its history and the 360 from a 1978 Dodge Monaco was rebuilt by a Mopar performance expert and fitted. He fitted the following (all I can make out from the 1992 photocopy of a handwritten receipt!):

Mopar Performance Cam 4452761.
Lifters unknown.
Mopar Performance Intake Manifold P4529116.
Piston rings 4.030"
Pistons unknown
Exhaust valve 1863

It is now fitted with:

Summit Racing Carb SUM-M08600VS. 600cfm
Distributor Pertronix PNX-D141701.
Coil Pertronix PNX-45001.

The exhaust manifolds are stock cast iron things.

The cam gives the car a bit of a Muscle Car-like performance and sound. I think I'd be happier with a stock cam as I am told it would quieten the idle and improve economy but the car can certainly pick up its skirts and shift itself!
