413 vs 440??

I guess I should have been more specific in my answer, it's not about the crank, it's about the comp. ratio. A pre 71 440 will be at the higher numbers (10 to 1 give or take) therefore the gentleman may not have to replace the pistons or do any deck work. A re-ring and hone may, and I say may, suffice.

without blueprinting the block..its closer to 9-9.2:1cr on the older 440's. best money you'll ever spend is to blueprint any Mopar engine. Not to mention the older 440's (sans the 915 headed ones) have terrible quench charactoristics.
