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

[Garrett Ellison]

Probably looking at about 2800 with the additional grunt of the 440...

 

[Garrett Ellison]

If I was in the market for a camshaft, I'd slurp that up

If there are ever plans to add boost to the motorhome 440, that cam (112LSA, 241@.050) and template porting the heads would probably have the track tech guys telling Tim to turn down the boost or add some more safety hardware.

Elmo65 is now Elmo.65. You had me down for 15.99.

 

[Garrett Ellison]

And by the way, I'm not joking one bit. If this goes 16.9's or slower (on a good pass, that's all she has in her), I will allow my wife to smack it with a sludge hammer and I will video it and post it.

If that happens, I vote you put a big shot plate system on it and leave the nitrous and fuel jets out for it's final pass.

 

[Elmo.65]

You going nitrous? Change me to “blows up on first pass.”

are you sure the RV 440 will twist harder than the 5.9 ??? I'm not .. LOL

No. "N" - "O" LOL

There's going to be some torque happening with that broomstick between 2500 and 3K...

That will show up in the 60 ft. It's got to beat the 1.78 that the 5.9 cut!!

 

[RustyRatRod]

Not the truck, the RV440 LOL.

Let me say this: I have more confidence in it running a 13.0 than I do a 16.9. I don't think it's going to run either. The only thing I know of the engine as to how it runs was when I put it in the Magnum. It idled well, and revved fine, but I couldn't do any testing because the transmission was bad.

So it's already claimed the life of one transmission. Brute power. lol

That’s where it’s going to do better with a 3.91. I think it may be testing the limits of the traction with the 4.30s.

It's going to hook up. It's got slicks. 3.91's may be better for the RPM of the 440 ... or 3.23 for that matter

I think you’ll need the 3.23s not enough rpm (maybe with the tall tire) for a 3.91 in my opinion

How has this new thread not been derailed yet?

Last thread went about 45 pages on point... I was hoping this one would till it makes a pass...

I have 3.23's, 3.91's, and the 4.30's (as of now). Tires are 29"

 

[Garrett Ellison]

I have 3.23's, 3.91's, and the 4.30's (as of now). Tires are 29" After looking back at IQ52’s thread on low compression 440 testing, I took note of the B/RBmagnum spec camshaft that he installed to establish the baseline. I’m inclined to think that the R/V broomstick is going to put the output closer to the 300hp, but probably a little less. It’s possible that it may run its best with a 3.23 gear.

 

[jrc4y4]

wish you had 3.55-3.73 available lol. I’d be curious to see how it does with the 3.23/3.91.

Probably just going to pick a gear that seems fitting when I drive it and roll with it.

With the 14x32 slicks you'll want the 4.30's.

 

[RustyRatRod]

5.13s

You must know of some in my area cheap?? REAL Cheap???? On rims???

 

[MOPARMAGA]

I thought it was illegal to beat a dead horse !

 

[fishmens67]

5.13s

I forgot to mention the low first gear. lol
