Brainstormin' 440 vs 5.9 ...

Well, I'm really leaning at this point to run it as the RV 440 smog motor that it is before "building it". We'll see. Give me your honest ET guess if I do this .... Because I have no idea what a smogger RV 440 will run in a D150
Hard to tell, IQ52 got 309hp with M1 headers and a summit cam, so shouldn't even hit 300 hp with stock cam, that's got to be 40-60 hp less than you got now. Guessing mid/high 13's.
