Beautiful Mopar power.

Have you ever worked on a long ram version?

Now that's a real engine! It's absolutely incredible what those engineers could achieve 5 decades ago with no CAD/CAM or anything to help predict how an engine should work. A compression ratio of 13.5:1 is much higher than any production petrol engine today can give. Forget about the single figure fuel economy, this is how an engine should perform and SOUND.

Is a 413 a 440? sorry for my ignorance I only had one dodge my 92 ram150 318 ..wish I'd have kept it now

That's awesome way to make up for relatively small engine size with 2 4 barrel carbs holly's?

Hey, hust wondering what kind of cam shaft you have in there. Original max wedge cam or something different? It'd be great if you could get some specs on it because I'm looking to get the same kind of sound out of my race motor.

Friend of mine has a Max Wedge in his coronet. Has to be one of the hardest pulling engines I've ever sat behind.

I built it out of my head to what seemed right/necessary to me. I think I figured I had about $500 in it all done. Metal alone maybe $100 but the big ticket items I didn't plan on were good casters, about $100 alone, fuel tank $100, and new temp gauge. I had the MSD and other gauges from past hot rods. Also went with stainless for the gauge panel, and quality toggle/ignition switches from summit. It can be done for cheaper if you want to omit some luxury's. Good luck, if I can help let me know.
