Absolutely. It is the best motor Chrysler built for an RV or truck application.. Sodium exh valves are a big plus. I don't know much about the head chambers or what it would take to get any type of quench though.


Just a quick question at this point .... how much investigation have you done on the 413 ... past the knowledge of the lack of piston choices ? Do you have access to a 413 core motor ?


No particular knowledge or expertise claimed Doc. I have read they make more torque down low than even a 440 and know the 413 industrial/motorhome versions were built to last. But I am all ears and willing to listen and learn.
