could use some help on this one guys, i have a 89 dodge ram 318 that i am going to rip out that motor and all of its electronic BS and drop a RV 440 bb with transmission into this truck instead, i need the power for some farm work. any help on any problems ill encounter would be very much appreciated thank you.
 
Some RV transmissions had a brake on the tailhousing. That might or might not be good for your truck. You'll need motor mounts and some knowledge of the electronics to hook everything up.
 
I found a company that specializes in these kind fo swaps, i got stopped by needing a oil pan from a 73-78 dodge big block, which are near non existent lol
 
I sold one of those oil pans not too long ago......... They are real funky with the dipstick tube attached to the side with pipe fittings. I thought it was homemade at first.... The MH may have the pan that is needed.
