    383 vs. 440?

    hey cj...i was going to just do a tune up, but i got to thinking it would be nice to take it to 69 specs (440) instead of the 1973 specs, which i believe it to be (280 hP or something like that)...so it sounds like the 440 it shall be! it seems to be the general consensus!

    383 vs. 440?

    hey 69hemibeep, i was told to redo the 383 would probably set me back between $4k and $4500 (a rough estimate without the machine shop seeing any parts of it)...the 440 is running good now, but i am 99% sure after talking to the previous owner that it has had no major changes on it, although it...

    383 vs. 440?

    hey big john, thanks for the info...I was told by the guy I bought it from it was an Interceptor and my research turned up the same info as you stated, Ford called theirs the interceptor, not MOPAR. The question is did the Jensen 440 have a special indicator on it? I was reading that the 1973...

    383 vs. 440?

    are most of the changes that need to be made on the upper end (heads) or the lower end? can i get a decent amount of the lost horsepower back by simply changing out the intake manifold with an aluminum one and say edlebrock rpm heads?

    383 vs. 440?

    I am sure many of you have answered this question 1000 times, sorry here is another. I bought a 69 roadrunner with a 440 (1973 Interceptor motor), but also came with a "supposed" numbers matching 383 (which it is from 1969, but not numbers matching). I am new to the restoration (and really car...

    Questions and Pics?

    Thanks basketcase, I had not been on the 521 site or heard of it. I see so many roadrunners done when searching websites, etc., but a little unsure of what is "factory" correct. So many of them have different parts, things set up differently due to the fact that everyone has a different idea of...
