AMC USED PARTS BUYERS INTERCHANGE GUIDE 1968-1974 How many times have you heard it? AMC used manufacturer's parts they didn't use their own. The 360-ci was built by Mopar and the 390-ci was built by Ford. These statements are not true. These power plants were pure Red White and Blue all American Motors power.
