D150 with a RV 440, just to see what it will run

[abdywgn]

that should add a few hundred rpm to the limit...unless it just stops pulling

well, I bought them from Rock Auto. It has the factory broomstick for the camshaft, no compression to speak of, probably the most inefficient engine Dodge every built cube per cube since overhead valves were used... LOL Still, it is a lot of cubes.

 

[MOPARMAGA]

Changing my guess from 14.32 to 16.99

 

[MOPARMAGA]

I’m in for this ride also. Seems the guesses are creeping closer to mine. I hope nobody tops me, I like being at the top of the hill.

Sorry, dude... you're going to be 2nd as I redid my guess & seen your comment afterwards.

 

[MOPARMAGA]

No offense, I just remembered driving a 77 440 truck, it was a Turd.

If a stock motorhome 440 runs 13.0x in @440willrun’s truck I’ll sell every magnum I own and start buying RVs.

deal. And if it goes 16.9 or slower, I will literally let my wife beat it with a sludge hammer and it will be a video on my channel

This is part of it, and I'm not forgetting it....

 

[RustyRatRod]

April 25th.... we have a little time... LOL. Remember, we aren't in Georgia getting sun tans.... we are in Parka's shovel'n snow...

Chop chop, Hop Sing. You're the one lives up there. lol

 

[halfafish]

I'll hop into this. I think the 440 will surprise some folks. A big block pushing a brick? 13.99...

[YY1]

3600 seems light for a full bed truck.

My 73 Satellite stripper weighs 3640.

...and the DC race books say try to get to 3800 for a B body.

 

[YY1]

OTOH, I ran a 77 400 in my Super Bee for a while and it ran damn strong.

 

[TT5.9mag]

Changing my guess from 14.32 to 16.99

Sorry, dude... you're going to be 2nd as I redid my guess & seen your comment afterwards.

[fishmens67]

It has to be faster than a 70 Fury GT running mid 15's in stock form, doesn't it? talk about a lead sled. lol

 

[TT5.9mag]

Has to be? More weight, less power, and (likely) less aerodynamic? I mean the only thing the truck would have over a 70 fury would be tires and 4:30 gears.

 

[junkyardhero]

lest you forget: baby stall & and an intake. carb is negligible i suppose.

13.99 here we come!

No way, those 440s had double the power

 

[33IMP]

...and after you get done running the rv motor as is.....
Pull a head, find out how far down the hole the pistons are.....
....and add a 4.150 crank. Whack .030 or .040 off the piston head.
500 Inches, (actually 487, with standard bore)12 to 1, put some cheap aluminum heads on it, a cheap regrind cam, avgas in the tank, and 11s here we come!

 

[fishmens67]

The curb weight for the Fury GT is 4100+ #'s.

For what it's worth, I ran a '68 Fury III 4 door hardtop at the track. Police package. Low mileage, stock 383 commando, auto, and the gears were maybe 3.23's?? Factory dual exhaust, factory HP manifolds. Car weighed just over 4100 lbs without me, no spare. It ran lower 15's... 15.2's I think???? But I can't connect any dots from a 383 commando in a Fury to a RV440 in a D150. I think a fairer comparison would be to find what a D150 with a 440 ran in the 1/4 mile, means they came with them. Even a D200 2WD with a 440 would get you a lot closer. Then a person could try and figure the x-factors such as headers, little more converter, and such.
