    Do you let your old engine warm up or just get in and drive?

    Sounds like one of the 8.2l 4 stroke Detroit diesels we had in the mlvw our m35 clones made by the company that makes skidoo and seadoos

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    Still a lot of weight on a 5 bolt semi floating axle! Really wanted a b350 with 8 bolt full floating axle, and full frame, but the only one I ever saw for sale around here was a shorty):

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    I think it is longer than the standard b250 I had 1st with the leaning tower of power, I think yours has a longer wheel base, but not as long overall as the maxis were, kinda sucked, I had just bought a maxi with a 318 in January of 2017, and the company folded in march

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    Was this a maxi? It's hard to tell from the angle, I don't think they had them in 76, but I could be wrong, I had a heavy B250 maxi, use to load it up with 7800 lbs of news print grocery flyers then go delivered them to kids to delivery door to door, it had a magnum in it, it's was a...

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    I was looking at magnums and they go for like 1500, no trans, since the 440 powered rv with the Swiss cheese frame is right besides the one that has the 360 iits the logical swap for me atm

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    Hmm interesting artical left me with a couple questions that I haven't googled yet, why would I have to use a mini starter or grind the block for clearance if I use a std size? Wouldn't I keep the stock starter? And #2 if I need to use my la oil pan do I have to change the timing chain cover?

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    Unless the pan is different between the years a coachman and a sportsman are pretty much the same except the sportsman had more options, like the 440, ac, bigger alt, plusher interior etc forgot to include radiator, was already planning to move it from the sportsman to the coachman either way...

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    no ignition or other changes required to go from efi to 4bbl? Oh, and no trailer going to nova scotia for the summer, just a 4ft tray on the back (welded to the frame, not in a receiver), for the propane, genny etc, however ever there will be a 26 or 28 ft box trailer when we move to BC

    360 vs 440 79 coachman

    Once the 360 is running and mobile and the house rebuilt I am wondering what the 360 will be like on hills and onramps etc, is it going to be a dog? Would a 440 swap make sense? If so what would I need to move over? I know from looking at rock auto the motor mounts are different so do I need...

    No oil to top end

    Pretty sure he said it ran good, but had low oil pressure so he changed the pump, is it possible a partial blockage was causing the low oil pressure and got kicked in to a full blockage by the new pump? Fwtw that's my guess

    egr or timing backfire

    I do have question, it has EGR but no air pump, it has two sheaves on the crank pulley, one on the water pump then on to the alternator, the power steering doesn't go around the water pump, there are no mounting brackets and the block doesn't seem to have the correct holes for mounting and air...
