      A 454 is cool to have, but in that big of a vehicle it's not all fun and games. It doesn't pull like a 454 Chevelle, it pulls like it has a 305 because all of those RVs were low compression emissions controlled big blocks with 180-200 HP, but they had maximum torque cams. This Winnebagel needs a Cummins 6bt swap in the worst way...they should've never released these big sons a bitches without a diesel standard.

      nascar events have much more than the racing to do. since kansas hosts 3 races in one weekend, you can buy a pass for all 3 races for 3 days, and it's CHEAP compared to F1 events. plus you get to see way more of the action because it's an open track. you can meet the drivers and teams, check out the cars in the paddock, etc.

With today's fuel prices a Turbo is a must to increase fuel econ and torque when hauling. That T400 is perfect, no need to replace it. A very good frame and drive line for lots of activity's.

    Every time you drive an RV it brings back memories of having one as work vehicle. The steering stability has a lot to do with the weight distribution. All the Class C RV (van cab) that I've driven have very little weight on the front axle. The Class A (one big box) RV are better designed, and while yours has an enormous rear overhang it seems to be better balanced.

    A blast to watch, Kevin. Thank you. I owned a 1984 P30, The "Southwind by Fleetwood" model. 31 ft. We had it in the mid eighties to early nineties. At one point it was missing and just running like crap.
    I decided to change all the vacuum lines, and charcoal canister lines. I kid you not, I went through 3 25 ft rolls of vac hose on that monster. Unreal. It ran better, but what a pain in the behind.
    I started to twitch when you pulled that doghouse, was flashing back...LOL.

    So with the p30 chassis, you will want to get ceramic tipped spark plug wires so they don't melt 20 miles down the road and starts arcing to the manifold. Also if your model has an automatic parking brake it might be stuck, usually located on the back of the transmission(but yours looks like a 70s model so I'm not sure if they went back that far)

      96,000 miles on a camper is about equivalent to 300,000 or more on a regular pickup. Plus, as most already know, they had a really bad run of 454s with soft cams that would eat the back 2 or 3 lobes off in 100,000 miles or typically less.😜

    My grandparents had this exact model down to the hideous carpet. So many good memories ... mainly at Charlotte Motor Speedway. They would spend the summer at Myrtle beach and then stop there on their way back to WV. Their campsite was next to Ken Schrader's parents campsite in the late '80s. He would always stop by to see how they were doing in the morning. I still have a signed Folger's diecast car he gave me when I was like 6 years old.
