Gentilman this is not an engine, this is an outstanding work of art, that sound leave anyone with the wild desire to be there, too bad I am thoudsands of miles away, most kind of you for shearing it with us, from Puerto Rico wishing you the best of it.........Jesus Torres.
Great job with the engine and stand, engine sounds great. That Dart ought to get on down the road with that thing in it. Hope it gives you many miles of enjoyment..
Hey people if you listen to what he says the "words" you'll answer your dumb questions or criticisms. This is for those who said anything dumb about the cam break in or anything that he said with "words".
very nice, Danny. I've a '77 b200 with a fairly nice 440 in it. I'm soon to do the heads again. so i will upgrade my intake and cam. enjoy it. i have so far.
Per the TACH in the video, the engine was running at ~ 600 R.P.M. This low an RPM on a new engine/cam can bring DEATH to a new cam and lifters, it only needs a "few minutes" operating at this low of RPM and HIGH LIFTER LOADING to start the damage. If you are building a new engine never run your new engine this low an RPM for "entertainment value" Ideally, you want the lowest loading possible on these new parts. Depending on how radical your cam is I like to break them in between 1600 - 2200 RPM for at least twenty minuets the "first cycle" this gets you up to temp and oil pressures and allows you to check on any oil, water and fuel leaks. If everything is still Jake, then it's time to inspect the valvetrain, check the rockers, springs and locks. Let the engine cool and re-check the lash. Now it's time for a longer break in run, start the engine up and set the idle ~ 2200 RPM give or take a hundred or so, what you want to hear is that sweet "floating sound" as if the engine has no load on it at all. I run this "second cycle" for an hour. Depending on the engine I may run several more hour long cycles, remove and inspect internals of the oil filter, replace break-in oil if needed Once broke in, NEVER operate your high lift long duration cam engine with low idle settings. Idle "set" somewhere between ~900 (on the low end) and ~ 1500 (on the high end) on how "BIG" your cam is will help your cam, lifters and bearings serve a long life, you will also benefit from a cooler running engine, better oil flow and pressure....there are wins allover here.
everything looks great, nice valve covers,paint looks sharp,engine stand is cool as can be! you have a nice garage and yard set up too,birds singing, chairs around the block,bet the grilles not to far away either. you sure you have enough cam in that beauty, lol sounds healthy, you say that's going into a dart? oh yeah, that'll get up n go. any upcoming vids on it?only saw the camaro on your channel, but I looked quickly, I could've missed it.thanks ☆☆
its not just lifter to lobe problem,make damn sure the lifters spin freely in their respective bores,spin freely by hand cold esp,alot of these cams I've looked at for customers shows lifter wear on the sides of the lifters,food for thought,very important
Danny Russell Is the noise coming from the bellhousing/ flywheel normal? It’s like a chatter, when you increased the rpm’s at 7:30 the noise/chatter went away. I have a 440 in my 74 challenger and it seems to make the same noise as your in this video. I was told I had the wrong flywheel/plate. Have you heard this before? Thank you for your time, great video
How much power is it making? I have a similar setup but with a 360 and the same exact cam with speedpro H116CP pistons and a 308 head with cast iron 340 intake with a 6322 Thermoquad carb.
small block is where it's at. smaller pistons and rods weight less which means you can turn more Rs, N/A that is. forced induction or extra deep pockets/fund changes things. if your rich they do have quick rev n/a big block 500 CIs.
You need a breaking in oil with an anti scuff additive the engine must be hi r.p.m. 2,000-2.500 as all that oils the cam lobes is throw off from the crank.Yes , I taught Hi Perf. for 40 years, 2 in Malvern Pa.
Dude you didn't get yourself a set of some Old B-1 head's The Indy Intake & head combo alone was like a 200 HP kick in the balls OH MY Man you really don't need the fan right now it will be some time before your gonna need the fan why not let it get hot then turn the fan on .. Operating temp and NOT allowing it to idle top low is the right way to go not down so low you flicker the low oil light You put that car in drive and you will stall the car why would you ever set the idle so low do you think its impressive camshaft wise well I hate to be the guy to tell you this but in real motorhead circles thats NOT what we like
Michael Laverty how bout you shut the fuck up. If you ain't got nothing nice to say don't say shit. It's on a stand due to tuning/break in purposes. Do you know what tuning means? Probably don't even have a classic ride of your own.
man that idle lope is music! there aren't tooo many videos of such sweet sounding 440s on youtube.

Your ignition timing is spot on the money!!
Thanks
I'd say the guy knows what he's doing, look at the set up
Right on, this old boy has turned a few wrenches. Type of dude a gear head likes to have for a neighbor
This sounds like a mechanical version of Metallica. Hell yeah!
Right On Bro .... Dig Yur Comment!!!!!
You can tell this guy could build anything. Not a Mopar fan but it really sounds great.
with no fuel like 1968,this engine was a monster on 112 with 12-5 to 1 compression,mopar rules,yours sounds healthy.love the stand
I love your engine stand! Very ingenious! The only thing wrong with it is, I didn't think of it myself!!!! You are a master!!!
Hardly even moving the air cleaner... good job sir. Sounds happy!
Awesome setup. Doing my first engine build on a 440 soon.
And that monster is going in a Dart? Damn Danny, way to go.
Very nice build and great engine stand ! You’re very creative and skilled .
She sounds absolutely fantastic!!! Danny, you did good. REAL GOOD!
Sounds beautiful timing spot on. Beautiful build man keep it up.
That cam is awesome in that 440. Gotta have a cam sounds better by the engine than the mufflers
What a beautiful way to turn gasoline into awesome music! Sweet-sounding 440. Wish it was in my '67 GTX.
Sounds good dad, speed er up a little
Sounds like a "Good Ol Boy😁👌".
Beautiful build 💜
It's all good : engine, and run-stand setup. Attention to detail. I'd like to see the finished Dart. I had a '69 once.
5 5 15th type t5 t5 t5 ft
Great job with the engine and stand, engine sounds great. That Dart ought to get on down the road with that thing in it. Hope it gives you many miles of enjoyment..
Best music ever created.!
Mopar Symphony.

Love paper towel dispenser on the test stand.
Sounds badass, my friend used to say "sounds mental!"

Idles a bit low ,sounds just like my friends 360 ,great job and no oil leaks !
When Mopar idles, everybody listens.
The start up is awesome sounds like a 2020
beautiful job sir! sounds awesome!!
Eargasim. Thank you. Great video. Nice work on the engine stand
Its funny how many don't know
everything looks great, nice valve covers,paint looks sharp,engine stand is cool as can be! you have a nice garage and yard set up too,birds singing, chairs around the block,bet the grilles not to far away either. you sure you have enough cam in that beauty, lol sounds healthy, you say that's going into a dart? oh yeah, that'll get up n go. any upcoming vids on it?only saw the camaro on your channel, but I looked quickly, I could've missed it.thanks ☆☆
Sounds grate.
I built engines to.
What's the lift on the cam...damn it sounds awesome.😀👍👍👍👍
The cam part# is in the description look it up
Sounds great what compression ? intake centerline ?
This is the cam I found wiped out in the 440 I bought
its not just lifter to lobe problem,make damn sure the lifters spin freely in their respective bores,spin freely by hand cold esp,alot of these cams I've looked at for customers shows lifter wear on the sides of the lifters,food for thought,very important
Chinese metal = recycled metal = catastrophic failure
Love the hole setup,great job!!👍🏿
Thanks Roy
Stainless steel Headers? they look nice what kind are they?
Very Cool Danny! Mopar 2 Ya'!!
Such a nice setup!
What's all done to that motor because my 440 sounds pretty similar my grandpa built it in the 80s and nobody knows what's done to it
Nice job Mr Mopar👍
Love that sound!
How about putting that 440 in your Miata that's in the picture around 30 seconds?
Nice. I see where you said it was installed in Dart. How did/does it run?
Shouldn't you not interrupt the break in?
What valve springs did you use a part number thanks for the awesome video
Sounds great.
sounds awesome
I love running the engine around 7 or 8 hundred RPM at Idle so you get to hear the cam sing nothing better the a RB Mopar
Would be nice to see vacuum numbers.
Clean work an nice design on the stand
Mark Winberry Thanks
Nice engine
you can idle it up just a smidgen
I think this should fix my Neon real nice
Will you make one of them and sell one
Wow. Music to my ears!
flywheel or t. converter?
Did you use 1.5 or 1.6 rockers? What compression?
1.5 stock rockers
Danny Russell Is the noise coming from the bellhousing/ flywheel normal? It’s like a chatter, when you increased the rpm’s at 7:30 the noise/chatter went away. I have a 440 in my 74 challenger and it seems to make the same noise as your in this video. I was told I had the wrong flywheel/plate. Have you heard this before? Thank you for your time, great video
Great looking engine.
Sounds great!
Siiiick headers....
Sweet music!

Alex Levy I am not sure I am thanking 460 to 500 it is in my dart but have not had it checked.
Good job on that motor. All the best and thanks for the reply.
small block is where it's at. smaller pistons and rods weight less which means you can turn more Rs, N/A that is. forced induction or extra deep pockets/fund changes things. if your rich they do have quick rev n/a big block 500 CIs.
can turbo the big block too....small blocks will never make the power big blocks will.
I love those valve covers. Where did you get them?
Ryan Nayr The World Wide Web
What valve springs did you use?
Is this the 276/284 duration 513/533 lift 110/106 lobe separation angle lunati voodoo cam?
Which converter is used?
@@asagriggs8580 copy and paste the part number he listed and search it at lunati it says what size stall it needs
Great sounds like it should.
Mopar power!
Are a member of For A Bodies Only?
Yes
That sure didn't sound like 3000 rpm to me.
Dude that cam sounds awesome I fucking love it I have a69 440 with the mp 509 in it sounds pretty good also mopar or no car sweet
It's what I have in my 79 power wagon plow truck. Is a 509 lift cam. In a 1970 440 . Idles just like this does
Guess I'll walk home then!!!
Nice.
You sound just like Big Daddy Don
You need a breaking in oil with an anti scuff additive the engine must be hi r.p.m. 2,000-2.500 as all that oils the cam lobes is throw off from the crank.Yes , I taught Hi Perf. for 40 years, 2 in Malvern Pa.
not really lol.
Unless you run a roller cam, that is.
dynodon100 I broke my cam in at idle with lots of zddp and stp oil treatment.
WOW a first time for everything! Too much spring pressure?
dynodon100 nope. I just don't do 2000rpm. My cam is absolutely fine. Broke a 455 Buick cam in the same way.
Good gracious 📢
Very nice!
Yes
2:10
Yeah I GOTTA get a Big block V8 fuck these Hondas
The break in is to drive it and romp a few times
Nice Job.....👍
engine sounds like 100,000 miles of happy power,mopar power,change oils often,filters and pickup screens ruins good engines
Sweet
Wow
sounds good n pissed off!
To low rpm..stab brakes kill motor ty up 1000
Hurry up FFS
TERRIBLE TO RUN THE IDLE SO LOW - YOU JUST TRYING TO MAKE IT SOUND BETTER? VERY BAD FOR ENGINE
