Engine Question

[Bob.B.]

HI GUYS
IN THE PROCESS OF REPLACING A 44O MAGNUM WITH A DIFFERENT MOTOR OF THE SAME SIZE JUST TO SAVE THE ORIGINAL ENGINE. AND RECENTLY FOUND A SEDAN WITH A 44O RB FAMILY TAG ON IT. JUST CURIOUS IF YOU COULD LET ME KNOW WHAT THE RB FAMILY SPECS ARE. THANX MUCH. [-o<

RB stands for Raised Block. All 413, 426, 440 wedge motors are RB's including your 440 Magnum.

FWIW, The 361, 383 and 400 are B blocks. The difference between B and RB blocks is the distance from the centerline of the crank shaft to the deck surface the heads bolt to with the RB being larger therfore the "Raised" designation.
