I like the Whiplash. I want to save my money for my build, but you have me thinking. This 440 could be in there for a while.

Here is a pick of the 400 I just popped.




mines been in since 2010 now and a weekend-some what a daily driver when the 85 is down.. the stock cam is not all that bad from a MH..plenty of lowend torque with the RPM intake but it is all done at 5000 rpm about 4600 rpm with stock points bouncing. but some NOS Accell 32oz spring points fix that and now pulls to 5500 and out of steam.

about 1800-2000 rpm would get me 15 mpg with a q-jet/3.23 gears, 3.91 drop it back to a flat 10 mpg.

I would have no problem dropping in a bone stock lopo MH 440 with nothing but a RPM intake and good carb..headers if I had them.( I run 2 center dump truck manifolds now till cam swap with headers)

the 440 truck does well with 3.23 gears on the hwy and city driving but the 3.91sg is a blast to play with.
