The results of close attention to details. Frankly, I'm a little surprised, it's one strong power house for sure! Great work Joe, congratulations on a very well done job. I realize you aren't finished yet, but I can imagine it going higher.
@@JustMoparJoe I had a 67 Dodge Charger, with a .509 lift cam. Don't remember what the duration, or lobe spacing, but it idled with a lope, and I was told when I bought it it was putting out at the flywheel 430 horsepower. It had stock heads, hooked headers, and complete 2 and a half exhaust. If we ever meet I will show you a picture of my Charger. I bought it right after I got out of the Marines. In 1976.
Congrats Joe! Awesome series of videos of this build great numbers!! I have a 400 block sitting in my garage these videos are definitely motivating me to get going on it
Good job on this one joe, that is a good strong motor and it looks like it runs real clean on the dyno. you should get some good results with this one. youre really coming into your own as far as quality work.good job man
I guessed way lower, 445hp. Really sorry I doubted your prediction of hitting that 500hp mark. Been following your channel for a couple of years and your work is ALWAYS top shelf and quailty. That 400 sounds really good. You're going to need wheelie bars on that Barracuda !!! Good job. 👍
@@JustMoparJoe I saw a tunnel ram in the mix. 🍿 I would have liked to see the torque curve with it smoothed at 5, under 3500 RPM. If I remember correctly this is the engine that CCP at 165? 🤓
Good to see you hit your mark of 500 so soon . I look forward to the rest of the test and the changes you’re going to make . I hope your numbers keep going up ! Good job
I was passing it on by the time it was up on the screen buddy, I was excited that I was so close for a amateur assembly man. Great day to you and enjoy your special day and fruit of the hard work that you have put in the motor!
@@JustMoparJoe I will tell you like I always do, your more than welcome and I am happy that it worked out well for you and my pen and paper still has it with no timing specs. Great job with your motor and it is going to get you far my friend. Enjoy.
I bought my first RPM dual plane intake from Bob Mazzolini and Jason his employee told me they bench flowed and RPM out of the box and it flowed the same as his ported single plane.
Joe: first time commenting on your channel. Looks like you’ve built yourself a SOLID engine: congrats!!! Can’t wait to see how much you wring out of it totally, I enjoy your laid back attitude and keep up the good work!!!!!
@@JustMoparJoe I will be looking forward to it. I would be happy with that one but that's me and your going for the gusto. Good luck to you. Enjoy your evening Joe
WOW!! I am quite impressed with this build. Those heads are working for sure!! I think I was expecting around 485-490 HP and 520 or so Tq. Man, was I low on HP!! VERY NICE!!!!! You are already seeing what i expect from my 440 and you've only just begun!!! Great build, buddy!!!
@@JustMoparJoe Your very welcome. Such power with mopar. In the 70's we had a 69 roadrunner with 383/torqueflight as the grocery getter that my dad purchased new that year. Miss the car, was a monster. 3.91 gears and just a solid car. we had it up until 1999 when i sold it to help pay for bills due to his declining health.
Very nice. I've been watching. When you can surprise your dyno guy, that's pretty cool. Cast Crank no less!!! Fully successful!! Much to be proud of there.
I have the same engine and set up except for the heads on my 64 Dodge. A transplant from a 74. This gives me something to think about. I got enough power right now… but who knows what I’ll do… thanks for the video.
Good numbers on torque and power. I really like that engine and it's setup. Seems to be jumpin around a little bit on the stand. But as long as your happy with it that's all that matters. Thanks man .
Great little motor joe, I think you will like the Holley intake, little torque monster for sure for such a mild build. I ran that same tunnel ram on a 440 similar build made real good power with 600 Holley double pumpers, not so much with the edelbrocks, but that was test and tune and track time, no Dyno.
Great Job and Video cant wait until the other parts drop..
Thanks, Andy. It was a blast! Thanks for the predyno info!
@@JustMoparJoe anytime!
Awesome job, excited for the tunnel ram test.
TUN...NEL...RAM....TUN...NEL...RAM!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great job Joe! Hit 500 without even trying hard... I knew it! 👍🏁
Thanks, Tony! More to discover soon!
Nice work Joe.
Thanks, Bob!

Definitely putting some twist on that dyno. Well done 👏
Thanks 👍He had to readjust it for the final tests!
I'm happy that you have gotten the numbers that we predicted for the "Smoger 400 Mopar"
Absolutely!
@@JustMoparJoe absolutely correct and perfect.
WOW you said you wanted 500. I never said a word because I just didn’t think those parts would get there. A sincere congratulations from me!
Thanks, Mr. Rick! Swung for the moon, and hit mars
Very Awesome Joe.
Thanks for mentioning The Shop.
Thanks for the hard work, Ed!
Love it 🤠. I'm very excited to see the t-ram and the holly intake numbers!
Thanks, Shane. You know what's coming!
You were RIGHT ON TARGET! Out of the box, made the 500 number! Your Mopar Magic surprised the dyno operator... Can't wait for the tunnel ram test...
That’s Coming next time! Thanks Frank!
Tunnel Ram ! Tunnel Ram !
@@mitchellferre1652 absolutely!
Congrats Joe! Awesome series of videos of this build great numbers!! I have a 400 block sitting in my garage these videos are definitely motivating me to get going on it
Thanks Louis!
That thing is crushing the absorber on the Dyno, WOW! 😮
I'm waiting Joe!
Good morning everyone.
☕️ cheers!
Morning!
What a beast!! Great work mr joe 💪🏼
Appreciate it Brother!
Happy, happy, happy 400! Square is awesome for a bracket man!
I agree!
Watching again... Excellent work Joe
Thanks for the support!
That engine is kicking ass excellent work
Thanks brother! Should be fun
Dude! Great job!! Those are great numbers.
Thanks, brother! But wait, there's more!
Wow ! Always knew those Chrysler 400s had more potential than most people give them credit for, but wasn't thinking that much! Great job!
Thank you! I think it's a good combination backed up by good machining.
Awesome job Joe! That engine is making awesome numbers at that cubic inch. I was surprised at how well that original carb performed. Great job!
Thanks, Darren! There's more to be had!
Nice Joe!!! And got my day off to a good start !!!!
Thanks Tim. It only gets better from here!
@@JustMoparJoe Oh, I believe for sure!! I'm still guessing but I think it will like the tunnel ram the best for peak HP.
You may be as surprised as the dyno guy was!
I do believe you can hold your head high on this one great work my friend 🎉
Thanks Rich! It surprised us all. Wait until next installment!
I can’t wait for the next instalment it will be interesting to see
I'm extremely impressed. Awesome 400 build
Thanks, Ryan!
Not bad for 7 my friend! 🤣
That is really good for that setup
Thanks, John. More to see!
Good job on this one joe, that is a good strong motor and it looks like it runs real clean on the dyno. you should get some good results with this one. youre really coming into your own as far as quality work.good job man
I appreciate that, very much. Found a nice combination here.
Great numbers great combo! To start with. Congrats Joe.
I think so too! Thank you. Tunnel Ram test next time.

Tim I guessed 467hp.
I was way off too.
This engine really turned out nice.
Take care, Ed.
Thanks Tim! I think I surprised the dyno guy too!
Well i missed it too haha. stout motor great job
No worries! It was a wild card Engine for sure.
Wow! That's awesome! You're ready for the track now.
Can't wait! Thanks brother
Right on bro! Great vid and good numbers! Stoked to see the rest of the tests!
Thanks, Joe! You know as well as anyone that we just cracked the surface in the dyno cell. I think we had nearly 40 pulls by the end of the day.
@@JustMoparJoe that’s wild! Excited to see the the diffences between the intakes
Pretty decent numbers. I like it. 👍
But wait, there's more! We just cracked the shell on this dude
@@JustMoparJoe
I saw a tunnel ram in the mix. 🍿 I would have liked to see the torque curve with it smoothed at 5, under 3500 RPM. If I remember correctly this is the engine that CCP at 165? 🤓
The moment we have all been waiting for
Thanks brother. I know you’ll like this 3.37 stroke and 4.372 bore.
Lord Lord this is good stuff!!!! I have a similar setup on my 440.This is good news for me!!!
Thanks, James. The 440 may make more torque with it's longer stroke. This 400 is definitely special.
Congrats Joe, u got over 500 HP, great job.
Thanks 👍Ive got more tests coming soon. I didn't want to cheat myself any time on the dyno.
Finally got a chance to watch these videos. Love it! Great job putting that thing together.
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks Clint!
I didn't guess on the hp but if I had I would have been way off, great work Joe, something to be proud of
Thanks Jack! Much more in the chamber 👍🏼
Congratulations Joe! That’s bad ass. Love the video.
Thank you, Jonny! I hope it showed the full dyno experience. It was nerve racking for a newbie like myself.
Great work Joe she’s a beast !
Thanks brother
Good to see you hit your mark of 500 so soon . I look forward to the rest of the test and the changes you’re going to make . I hope your numbers keep going up ! Good job
Thank you, Terry! I want to build your 360 in a similar fashion. Doesn't take exotic parts and stroker kits to make great power!
Nice! The next test will be really interesting too.
You absolutely called it! It was hard to not give it all away at once, but we have so many tests left, that I didn't want to short change anyone.
I was passing it on by the time it was up on the screen buddy, I was excited that I was so close for a amateur assembly man. Great day to you and enjoy your special day and fruit of the hard work that you have put in the motor!

Thanks Paul!
Your been doing your homework Joe . To get those numbers . 🥇👍🏻💯🇦🇺.
Thank you! Much more to come!
I bought my first RPM dual plane intake from Bob Mazzolini and Jason his employee told me they bench flowed and RPM out of the box and it flowed the same as his ported single plane.
Thanks, Jonny. They are good intakes for sure. This one was bone stock. Not even close to port matched.
It wants to jump off the Dyno and get on down the road! Awesome build, when you put it in a car it's gonna be a handful
Absoluetly! I appreciate the support!
Joe: first time commenting on your channel. Looks like you’ve built yourself a SOLID engine: congrats!!! Can’t wait to see how much you wring out of it totally, I enjoy your laid back attitude and keep up the good work!!!!!
Thank you, Joel! It was an exciting day to see it all with zero failures and nearly 40 dyno pulls!
@@JustMoparJoe if I get the chance, I want to build a 440 stroker and have a 6 pak setup on it.
Looks like I was pretty darn close off the bat. Yes! 🧐😉5
Well done! The next 3 videos make this one look like weak sauce!
@@JustMoparJoe I will be looking forward to it. I would be happy with that one but that's me and your going for the gusto. Good luck to you. Enjoy your evening Joe
Remember when I said you could drop that in my Satellite? The offer still stands! Great build Joe
Haha!! Thanks Jason
The big moment!!!
Thanks brother
Awesome! It has surprised me, I wouldn't have guessed it would make that much horsepower without a lot more done to it! 👍
Thanks Mitch. Hope you come back for 2-4.
Good stuff… I’m enjoying this little series. Can’t wait to see the next one.
Thanks Mike! It’s doing great!
Very nice numbers
Thank You! More coming soon!
That puts me out on the contest already lol but man, in this case, I have no problem being wrong! Well done!
Thanks, T. I appreciate the support. I definitely walked away happy, by the end of the day.
Awesome work Joe!!! I think I actually guessed pretty close, which was pure coincidence. 🤣
Thanks, brother. You won't believe parts 2-4. This is a warm up session!
@@JustMoparJoe can't wait!

Thanks Kevin! It’s fun to get more firm less like this one. Definitely more in the chamber 👍🏼
very nice combo!
Need some Trick Flow heads now
Thanks Rick.
Thats Awesome Joe,great job! Wow, I was way off on my numbers guess 😆 but it did better than I thought so thats a great thing! 👍
Thanks, buddy. I hope you see the next videos!
@JustMoparJoe Oh yea,ill definitely be watchin! 👍
That was just what you were looking for. 500+ HP and excellent torque! Very happy for you. I see a future video of you installing some wheelie bars!
Haha! Thanks Brad!
Awesome! Sounds great! Impressive numbers!
Thanks, brother. You'll really dig the next few tests.
Great video and gobs of torque and over 500 HP is a good recipe for winning.
Thanks Mike!
Sick engine!! You can hear the power that beasts puts out. Love Mopar.

Very impressive Joe. I've got 2 400s laying around. There's a lot of potential in them!
Thanks Todd! Im glad I tried this one.
you have a winner Joe. i would expect these numbers with a 440, and i am pleasantly surprised by your stock stroke 400 performing that well. good job!
Thank you. You’ll like parts 2-4 👍🏼
Excellent build Joe, no T Shirt coming my way 😂. Strong Pulls!
All good Chris! Thanks brother
Nice build Joe !.. that thing is a buzzsaw!! 🤘
Thank you! It gets better in tomorrows video. I have the overlays between the two tests so far
@@JustMoparJoe Awesome, looking forward to watching. 👍
Awesome Joe, and your just getting started. Attention to detail shows in your work. 💯🏁
Thanks you, Tim! It was an excellent day. There was so much data, that’s had to break it up. Trying the old Weiand tunnel ram next time!
@@JustMoparJoe cool beans. I forgot what I predicted. Good luck and hammer time.
Cool.

Great video!! I can't wait to se the rest!
More to come! Thanks Greg!
Great video. It’s nice to start out immediately Meeting your goals, then you’re just having fun from there. Lol.
So true! I knew after the first pull it was a good day!
I have the same engine and set up except for the heads on my 64 Dodge. A transplant from a 74. This gives me something to think about. I got enough power right now… but who knows what I’ll do… thanks for the video.
Love the 400! I finally got to test drive it in my blue truck. It went in to my purple barracuda for a season and did well.
Nice power can't wait to see her rip, excellent sounding engine, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Thanks, Donald. Tunnel Ram fun next video!
Super Joe ! Goes to show that with some good planning and some good but basic parts can be done with good effort.
Thank you! It was a fun one! On to the swap!
Great video Joe 😁👍😎! HP and Torque are very surprising and you're just getting started! No T Shirt 👕 me lol.
Thanks brother!

Can’t wait to see the rest, awesome job joe ✌️🏁
Thanks Jeff! She’s definitely punching above her weight. Lots more to come 👍🏼
Nice torque numbers for street use!
Thanks, brother. Much more to come soon!
Motor sounds healthy joe you hit you’re mark with ease can’t wait to see what it does in the car.
Thanks Keith! Hope you come back for the tunnel ram. I was able to get several tests done 👍🏼
Good Job Joe, cant wait for the Holley SD test.
Thanks George! Tomorrow is tunnel ram time
Nice , you guys did detail all the steps during those tests.
Thank you!
That's a real happy 400 nice engine you have there sir

Man that motor sounded great on the dyno!!! Congratulations on the numbers!
Thank you! Tomorrow should be Tunnel ram Tuesday!
Good job Joe
Thanks Tim! Check out part 2
So Far So Good ! that was a tough tease at the end Joe !
Sorry buddy! Don’t want to short change anyone, and didn’t want a 60 minute dyno video lol
@@JustMoparJoe A 60 minute is a little long winded , I'm a drag racer so therefor I have a short attention span lol

I know that I didn't win but I was pretty close not knowing anything about the distributor. Yes, Yes, sir and Yes sir.
Thanks, John.
Was the spacer 1inch. very nice
Thanks, Richard. It is a 2" 4 hole into an open bottom.
Surprised the dyno man I BELIVE but it did not surprise me good job I’ve prob commented on this before but short term memory loss lol

I wish the dyno would hold it at 3000, the damn thing has 390ft lbs. at 3500!! What a wide band!!
Thanks, Rodney!
