Man that would be a monster for a 3rd gen to have......

if it does you're gonna need to beef up every part of the drivetrain.

 

You think?

Hell of a deal on a great build.

 

I was going to build one of those for the Road Runner I had...sigh

 

Hey pass this along its a hell of a deal.

If you know anybody who wants this I can drive out and look at it and get some more info for you, even some more pics.

Hey Ed, it's a 440, I'm sure you can shoehorn it in. By the way, are you in Utah? I'm in Layton on the base...

 

SLC all the way buddy.

Nice to have another ram'er around

 

That's the thing, its NOT a 440, this is "B" block (361, 383, 400) based. You put a 440 crank into the 400 block (400 actually has bigger bores than a 440, but the short stroke of a 383) and its instant 451 low block (after enlarging the main bores or cutting down the crank mains). The beauty of it is, you can claim its a 383 if you want, and no one is the wiser til the vehicle is sideways!

 

I like this guy right here!!!

Wanna come help me swap it? LOL

If only I had 2100 bucks and some new drivetrain.

I would think besides beefing up your tranny etc, how would you get the pcm, and all those other dasterdly electronics to work with your current harness. Thats the problem I ran into. Also, I would worry about failing emissions, but I am in PA. It would be a nice science experiment though...
