Fell into a 440 today

[70bigblockdodge]

So my B.I.L. goes to look at some Mopar stuff today. Calls me asking about numbers for some small block numbers. I ask if any big block stuff?
Yeah but he wants money for them, and I'm cheap. Guy does have a locked up 440.

69 440 HP
So $200 bucks and he kept the manifolds oh well thought I was getting a freebie.

Quick inspection when it got here reveled, redone heads with Magnum valve spring, nice tin, seems to have no broken parts. We will see.

Damn, that's good deal Dave.

lol, I was going to offer you $$ for the HP manifolds, then I scrolled down, and see the guy kept them.

Thought I scored a marine 440 with 100 hours on it from a boat that sank, motor was pristine. $400
