How can you tell a 440 from a 400 just by looking at it?I want to make sure the motor I found in the an RV is a 440.Also the guy said the transmission in the RV wouldn't work in my car as it has an air brake on the transmission.Can this be taken off?

Maybe this can explain it.  It also has links to other pages in the article itself. :icon_smile_big:

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

For a quick visual the 440 will have a machined raised pad to the left of the distributor. It should have a stamping like G440 indicating the year.

A low block will not have the pad at all. Here is a pic of where to look for it.
1968 Charger 383 auto
1969 Charger R/T 440 4 speed
1970 Charger 500 440 auto
1972 Challenger 318
1976 W200 Club Cab 4x4 400 auto 
1978 Ramcharger 360 auto
2001 Durango SLT 4.7L (daily driver)
2005 Ram 2500 4x4 Big Horn Cummins Diesel 6 speed
2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 5.7 Hemi
