Two atmospheres are better than one
Well if we’re trying to convince @440willrun to turbo his rv engine, it only makes sense to use yours as an example. Thread officially NOT derailed
Brainstormin' 440 vs 5.9 ...

LOL... RV 440 is going to slumber its way down the strip as is..... Got to see if it's better than 16.9's. And... if it goes 13.0's, I haven't forgot. There's going to be some magnums for sale

Post your guess.
My guesses are usually off but here goes 14.78
I can't win my own prize (not that I would because I have no idea either)

Just hit me with the Price Is Right why don’t ya.
I picked 14.3 because i cant see how it can be slower then my 68 85k mile all stock 340 727 3.23s gts
has more torque more gear only weighs 200 more lbs ish
Post it anyway dummy, it just won't count.
All right, but I’m just as blind to this as anyone else. I will go ahead and throw a number out, but I won’t put it in the list. 13.90
It may not have more gear than your car. If this pig wants to be shifted at 4000 RPMs, and it’s out of lungs by 600 feet, then I’ll probably just put 323s in it and run it like that. So there’s a chance it won’t have 430s in it when it makes a pass. I won’t add gearing to it, but I may take gearing away. I don’t think that would change anyone’s guess. But I will try it with 430’s first out of town.
It will be the stock rv cam for the opening runs in the truck. It's an original 1977 (or was it 1978??) rv 440 with a torker intake.
Alrighty then, we got you down for 13.90 !

Ironically, the next guy to guess used my number
I'm on record as a 13.90 guess, i'll keep the list for the actual guesses to save confusion. But what a list we have, for a thread that didn't start out as a guessing game

Next list will be guessing when you’re gonna put it in the truck.
