I have a 1977 dodge 4x4 truck crew cab that has a 440 engine with 3 spd auto transmission. I wonder what my options are with engine transmission replacemnet... Greatly need yor advice
1) buy a late model dodge 5.7 hemi 4x4x savage truck and basically put the whole power train in my 1977 , nice power with some gas mileage? ..
2)put an 360 engine or something like that with 700r4 overdrive transmission. Not sure about transfer case
Bolt up issue,
Please advise me what you would do if you were I
I've done 3 restores, good welder, good with truck wiring
My goal is a daily driver and a good 4x4 for hunting, with some crusing speed and gas mileage
